My tank has been established for 1-1/2. My original setup included an 8 watt UV. The bulb I replaced in November. I believe the turnover rate in one hour is 120gallons. So my tank turns about two times in an hour.
I'm currently running hyposalinity (see the disease forum for some of my posts) and I'm wondering if my 8 Watt is NOT sufficient. I purchased this on the recommendation of my OLD LFS.
Is an 8 watt large enough? If not what should I purchase? How many gallons per hour should be flowing thru the UV?
Any suggestions I would appreciate as I'm leary of calling my OLD lfs. Thank you.
Note: I did a 'search' on this website and found someone having 120gallon tank has 15watt uv.
