1 watt per 10 gallons... And if you want to kill parasites, less than 20 gph per watt.

Does that mean the bigger (watt), the better?

I have one of those and it has been rock solid for just over a year at this point. I even smashed the transformer housing and after taping it back together it still works great. Bulbs can also be found for cheap on eBay.

If you want your UV to kill everything parasites included size one to your flow based on no more than 10gph per watt. So that 9W I linked should get no more than 90gph of flow through it.

Some incredible pricing there.
Admit to being a bit reluctant to try products that are that far under normal pricing.
Any who get one, how about a review.
