So I got an internal uv sterilizer because of an algae problem in my tank. I asked people for some beneficial bacteria and it got here it looks great my cycle was almost done too. So I took out an spare marine land penguin filter(smallest one they carry) and when I plugged it in it didn't even make a sound it wasn't even working I checked the impeller and everything. BUT I'm getting a sterilizer tomorrow and wondering if I could stick one of these on the intake valve
because technically the bacteria wouldn't die because they aren't in CONTACT with light but very close to it.
So basically to summarize I want to use the uv sterilizer as a powerhead with or without bulb.
BTW all of this would be done AFTER my cycle
