UV question

[beachbomb]

Hi, I just recently installed a UV sterlizer(4 days ago) into my 65 gallon reef tank, its a well established tank. Today the water has a slight yellow tint to it. Could the UV sterilizer be causing this, if so, why? All tests are within the normal range on the water. Thanks. Jim

Was the water clear when you started using it? I wonder if it's affecting something free floating in the water column such as algae?

Hi, yes it was clear prior to starting the UV. Thanks
