Pond UV Steriliser Units

Aquarium UV Steriliser, Australia

If your fish pond water filters aren’t keeping your pond clear, you need a UV water clarifier. When your aquarium water — and your fish — looks a little green around the gills, a UV steriliser from Australia’s leading aquarium supplies shop can get rid of the algae. While eliminating green, UV sterilisers take the greenest approach yet, exposing pond water to ultraviolet light without the aid of chemicals. Without significantly impacting the underwater environment or water quality, a UV water clarifier can turn an opaque pond transparent, tearing through harmful algae without harming your fish or aquarium plants.

How a UV Steriliser Works Its Magic in Your Fish Tank

So, how does a UV steriliser leave a fish tank so clean and pristine? It’s a smart combination of obliteration and suctioning. Like moths to a lamp, the algae are drawn to the green water UV clarifier with some help from fish pond water pumps. As it flows through the UV steriliser’s casing, the UV light kills single-celled algae and bacteria, combining them to create larger clumps. Once your green water UV clarifier has snowballed your algae together, a decent-sized filter will extract it all from the water. Voilà! Your tank or pond is now pristine and clean as a shiny new whistle.

Why a UV Water Clarifier Is a Must-Have

Don’t be deceived by its green presentation — pond scum is as helpful to your aquarium as soap scum is to your shower. In actuality, algae are actively harmful to your underwater ecosystem, starving the water of the oxygen that your fish and plants require. It sets fish up for breathing difficulties and heightens their risk of disease. But, with a UV steriliser for pond and tank setups, you can keep your water clear of green nasties. Here are some benefits of a fish tank UV sterilizer:

• Ultraviolet light eliminates algae swiftly and permanently
• Reliability
• Hose connections galore
• Mountable on a wall or filter box (take your pick!).

Some Housekeeping for Using a UV Steriliser in Australia

Of course, all lights eventually dim, and a UV lamp is no exception. For optimal algae elimination, you must change your lamp every year. If you’re maintaining a UV steriliser in the Australian outdoors, we recommend switching the lamps around September, when the warmer weather is approaching. This way, your UV light will burn strongest throughout the spring and summer when the water is warmer, and the UV from the sun is at its peak for algae production. You can find your UV lamp replacement (and much more) among our extensive collection of fish pond supplies.
