What Uv light should I purchase

[Monolicious]

Hi All,

I am looking to get a Ultraviolet Light for my 450 Gal and was looking at these two Option.

Emperor Aquatics Smart UV 40 Watt
http://www.emperoraquatics.com/smart-uv-sterilizer.php

OR

Aqua Ultraviolet UV 25 Watt
http://www.aquaultraviolet.com/products/uvsterilizers/classic/25watt


Who makes the better quality UV from these two companies ?
Has anyone got either of these 2 items to do a review for me ?

They both cost quite a bit here in Australia so I want to make the best choice.

I am planing to run the the UV off my FX5 so any suggestions on how to hard plumb it would also be greatly appreciated.


Regards

Peter

Research which has a longer bulb and which has closer exposure to lite and which has more uv contact, those are very important! Also an fx5 is too fast and will decrease exposure time. Slower gph for aquariums!
