UV question again?
If you insist on using the UV, YES you can use it with inline of a RO unit
prior entering your Sump or Tank etc... BUT not in your Sump / Refugium or
the main tank.

Now you see the Yes an No answer to your UV unit.

Ahh..... no.....
Let me add to this addition - no - .....
No UV in the Tank / Refugium / Sump or in the water circulation or pumping
system.
Yes UV before [prior] entering the pumping work / filtering / water
circulation system.

But for those that thinking of getting UV, then NO.

What UV inline of a RO or RODI is to kill any bacteria or such before
entering anything from this water source.

Thanks for the info,i don,t think i,ll bother adding the uv.

Many thanks,

Paul.
