I had a UV for many years but the only problem is that only those free floating parasites that run up into the chamber will be the ones killed. Those that are down near the substrate wont be bothered. I `ve always heard that the parasite needs a fish host. That long since your last host I would say you`d be OK. Read this

I'd suggest you add slow. One or two fish and and sit and watch for 3 weeks.
