henward Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 yes, tank water is fantastic, but usually the UV filter from tank water comes with a coal or carbon filter? my sister has one, i like them, its cool but yeha, watch out, may hve to put in some minerals in the water if its ONLY UV, why not?

alanmin4304 Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 UV will kill the microbes (bacteria,algae etc) but will not remove the chemicals that a water change is intended to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 hi if i use a uv filter on tank water ( rain water ) can i use it for discus water changes I wouldn't bother with the UV, just put it straight into your tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
