Advanced UV Sterilizer 18W

Marineland Advanced UV Sterilizer 18W offers high-capacity UVC disinfection for larger and more heavily stocked aquariums. This inline system easily connects in series with canister filter outlet hoses, forcing water through an ultra-efficient exposure chamber protected by a high-transmittance quartz sleeve. It destroys free-floating parasites (like Ich), algae spores, and pathogens at a molecular level. It features an integrated safety interlock switch that shuts off the lamp instantly when the housing is opened, preventing eye injuries.
