Here we have the next topic for the rebuilding of my 240 gal reef tank, something that came up when i ask my aquarium man on what other equipment should I be looking for, and the equipment part he mention is a U.V. Sterilizer. Now the tank is 240 gals and the sump will be a 125 gals, im thinking I want to be looking for is a 36-40 watt U.V. Sterilizer, is my assumption correct? And which is the best to have? 40W Classic UV Sterilizer 3/4" NPT w/o Wiper (Aqua UV) 40W Classic UV Sterilizer 3/4" NPT w/Wiper (Aqua UV) 40W Classic UV Steril. 2" Port w/Wiper (Aqua UV) http://www.marinedepot.com/uv_ultraviolet_sterilizers_ozonizers_aqua_uv-ap.html
I taking notice of one thing different with the models here, some are with wiper and without it. What is the difference between the two? Who can even suggest other U.V. Sterilizers, your suggestion be most welcome This part is nothing to do with this topic, its about the overflow and bulkhead that if it should be impossible to be made larger, then I would need to look into another return pump, or two return pumps as James was first suggesting about, only I not want the quiet one or the eheim pumps.

Will have seven tanks in all: Two 40 gal breeders for QT, one for FO and the other is to be divided into two separated tank sections with their own filters for corals. Two tanks running as one system, a 70 & 130 gal tanks with a 150, 180 and 240 gal reef tanks. In the next few months to come, the 150 and 180 will be started up after I the new QT for corals setup. Finally!!!

| Will the UV sterilizer be run inline with the return pump or will there be a separate pump for it? The UV's that come with wipers allow you to clean off the UV Quartz Tube without having to take the UV apart. Ideally the quartz tube should be cleaned off monthly and the wiper allows this to be done easily.
