AQUAEL Sterilizer UV AS LED is a compact UV sterilizer that can be easily integrated into the return line of an external filter. The AQUAEL UV AS LED improves water quality in the aquarium and helps to prevent and combat typical problems such as green, cloudy water (floating algae/algae bloom). The UV-C effect reduces algae, bacteria, and other pathogens in the flowing water, resulting in visibly clearer water and a more stable aquarium environment. An important advantage: it is safe to use for fish and other aquarium inhabitants, as well as for beneficial nitrifying bacteria that colonize the filter and substrate. Algae spores, germs, bacteria, pathogens, etc. are effectively removed. The aquarium water becomes clean and clear.
