I was wondering if it would be okay to use a Koi pond UV sterilizer for an Aquarium instead? If not, i'll just go buy another one specifically for aquariums. But first i would like to know what you MFK's use... like Brand, watts, how strong of a pump should be used, and what are your reviews with the brand that you use. Please share your comments!:)
 
The use is the same, the only difference you might run into, is higher watts on the pond for bigger volume, different connections, for larger tubing, and lower price.
 
I use a turbo twist pond UV on my 270. It does the trick. I have a sequence750 4200 on my tank but between the head and friction from the 1" tubing I dont have a clue what its pumping.
