Currently on the tank I have a double PC hood with 2 55 watt bulbs on the main rectangular part. On the section that bows I have a single 55...

    UV??Ozone??In reef tank??

    I am going to have to disagree with both posts. I was talking to the lfs and they had a good point. You should have a uv sterilizer reef or no reef. The good thing about it is when a disease (parasitic) comes up you can safely treat it in the main tank with no chemicls. Usually if the fish is...
