UV Sterilizer Question??

[blemmy_guy]

Will a UV sterilizer kill or control Ick??? And what are the side affects of running a uv ??? Ive got a 50 gph pump running the Uv Sterilizer, thats what the book said would kill ick, but i just wanted to get some Honest opinions from all of You! Thanx Todd

You can control ich without one.. if you have stable water paremeters, and you feed with the proper nutrition. Dipping the food in garlic about 3-4 times a week helps alot. However.. uv's do work.. but they are not a necessity.
