I've said it before and I will say it again. UV and Ozone do very similar things. Get a good UV and see what it does for your system. Then and only then, consider ozone if you really feel you need it. This to me isn't a great UV sterilzer. To me it's more of a gimmick. If it was so great, you can bet a lot of people would be using it.

I've been using UV and ozone for about 20 years experience with both UV and have found that ozone is rarely needed in our hobby and if you have a quality UV that is properly setup in terms of flow, the results can be on par with ozone.

If you want a UV and ozone combination, then get one from AquaUV as they have much better UV sterilzers and bulbs.

Bare in mind that contact time is everything for ozone and UV but both have different flow requirements. You are talking about pushing 600- gph through the UV and that kind of flow rate for ozone is a waste of time and not going to be effective in our systems. It's your money but I think you are wasting it should you go this route.

In my opinion, you would be better off with a high quality UV sterilzer and a seperate ozone reactor of you insist on ozone. In my experience, ozone does absolutely nothing for disease control and UV will not prevent nor control ich. I speak from first hand experience as I had an ich outbreak back in that decimated my fish population despite having a high quality UV that was properly setup. A UV can help reduce the ich in the free floating stage but there will always be a majority of the parasite that winds up in the substrate or attaches to a host long before it makes it way into the UV. Plus, if you are intending on using UV for parasite control, running it off the return pump via a manifold is a waste since much of the water will go through the return loop. Then there is contact time. If you run all the return water through the UV, that flow rate is a concern. That said, running it from a closed loop where the water is taken directly from the display and returned to the display (not via the sump) is the best way to setup a UV for that purpose. That or running it between two systems to prevent parasites from passing from system to system.I've said it before and I will say it again. UV and Ozone do very similar things.

Ozone has been used for over 100 years as a preservative for foods and food ingredients, as well as for purification in the brewing industry, odour control and medical therapy. It is capable of destroying all bacteria algae and biofilms, with no risk of resistance, build-up, immunity or toxic residues, making it an ideal choice for direct food and drink applications.

Ozone is also a strong sanitisation and fumigation agent, which can be used to sanitise foods in the storage room and during shipping to prevent bacteria, mould and yeast on the food surface and to control insects. It can eliminate undesirable flavour produced by bacteria and chemically remove ethylene gas to slow down the ripening process, allowing extended distribution.

General practice for cleansing fresh fruits and vegetables requires washing in Ozonated water, and the wash water is then recaptured and treated by filtration and Ozonation. The treated wash water is free of bacteria, colour and suspended solids and can be recycled to reduce water usage. Unlike conventional halogen-based washing systems, wastewater discharged by the Ozonation process is free of chemical residuals, which pose a growing concern in terms of environmental and groundwater pollution.

Ozone is also commonly used to disinfect bottled drinking water, as it is both soluble and effective at killing microorganisms via the oxidisation of their cell membranes. It also has the unique property of auto-decomposition and will leave no toxic residues behind. This feature gives bottling plants the opportunity to disinfect drinking water and extend shelf life without chemically adding to the process water.
