Hurricane Closure Notice: As of 2:00pm October 8th our offices are closed so that we can prepare for the incoming hurricane Milton. All orders up to this point have shipped out. We expect this hurricane to cause major damage around us but have no idea as to the conditions that we will face when the storm is over with regards to power, roads in and out of the areas or the schedules of the carriers picking up our packages. Right now we are focused on our staff and families and preparing to ride through this catastrophe. Once we are all safe and all is clear then we will be back as strong as ever. Please have patience with us during this time and continue to place your orders. We will fill them as soon as we are back up. If you are in Florida our hearts are with you and we will be back soon.

Tetra Pond UVC-5 - 5 Watt - GreenFree UV Clarifier - 19523

Tetra Pond UVC-5 - 5 Watt - GreenFree UV Clarifier - 19523

Product Details

The Tetra ultraviolet clarifier works by exposing single celled algae to very high levels of ultraviolet light as the pond water containing them is pumped through the unit. The ultraviolet radiation not only kills the algae but causes it to clump together. These clumps can then be easily removed by your pond filter, water clarity is dependent upon the pond filter removing the dead algae.

Kills algae when all else fails After we cut down a tree that shaded our fishpond, we had green water. We added an aerator, used algicide and clarifier chemicals, flushed it with fresh water, nothing worked. Three days after installing the UVC-5 the water was crystal clear and has stayed that way even in hot sunny weather.
Pros:It works perfectly and operating cost is less than the chemicals we were using.
Cons:Had to modify hoses to connect it.
