How It Works
The UV lamp emits germicidal rays that disrupt the DNA or RNA of harmful single-celled organisms, effectively controlling waterborne pathogens without leaving any residual chemicals. While it will not completely sterilize your system, it significantly reduces bacterial load, keeping fish and invertebrates healthier.
