Pentair Aquatics 40 Watt UV Sterilizer. It's very tall, (nearly 35 inches) so won't easily fit in many stands. Ours sits on the floor behind the tank, along with our wet/dry filter and an FX5. The UV Sterilizer is connected to the FX5 return line. Pentair Aquatics uses a quartz bulb that lasts far longer than other UV bulbs, so it doesn't have to be replaced as often.

Many people really like their Coralife UV sterilizers.

With floor-to-ceiling picture windows and skylights in our living room, our 300 gallon tank is in day light all day. We had a major green water problem. The UV sterilizer very quickly cleared up the green water.
