The user before that said that he/she still got alot of ick before with a UV probably made some sort of error. Here's my advice: get one. They're really helpful. Go as large as you can, as larger is better. And dont push more than 25-30 gph per watt UV.

Drop me a line if you need more advice.
Good luck!

Thanks for the advice. I've had a 25 watt sterilizer lent to me, so I will see how well it works.
