  1. it doesnt matter where a product is made but in business I believe there shld be total honesty

    Fully agreed that it doesn't matter where the product is made from US or European or Asian or Local made and as long as it is spelled out clearly upfront rather than having a smoke screen deceiving the consumers.

    Honesty prevails ;)

  2. For me I want to know whether the product is a local or foreign made and will feel cheated if I am buying a product from a different origin when a different perception is given. Likewise for any other products.

    I think the info is good for the benefits of reefers so that they're aware of the product origin and let the individual decides.

  3. It is not the UV wattage that determines how fast the ICH parasites are killed.

    In fact it is the wavelength within the UV spectrum which damages the DNA structure of the organism so that they can't replicate itself.

    And that is why we pass our aquarium water over this light source as it will clean that water body of potential hazards and disrupts their DNA.

    As long as the water velocity through the sterilizer (must strictly follow the manufacturer's recommendation of the pump) is within the manufacturer's specs than any organism exposed long enough is killed.

    My 5 cts today ... :P

  4. I have a similar tank and are using UV-C 9W Sterilizer purchased from PetMart almost 2 yrs ago.

    If you want to use Coralife then my recommendation is the 3X as the 12X is overkill. Btw, the replacement 12X UV Tube cost more than $70+ if I am not wrong.

    Fyi, coralife specs as follows:

    3X 9W supports tank capacity up to 473litres of water

    6X 18W supports tank capacity up to 948litres of water

    12X 36W supports tank capacity up to 1895lites of water
