水草情迷

昨日我出左魚街買左支UV燈,店員同我講叫我24小時開,
但我對佢0既講法有些懷疑,他說長開不會咁易燒支燈..
我想問各位人兄同不同意那店員講法,和到底有冇必要24
小時開著它呢?

The UV tube usually can last for 6 months in continuous operation. If the quality of the UV lighting fixture is good, it won't have any problem. It is recommend to replace the tube in every 6 months.

I had used it for 8 hours a day and now using it 24 hours a day. I feel that the quality of water is better when using it for 24 hours a day. You can try different operation hours and see which suit you most.

我的UV是長開的,只有落肥時才關。

我都係２４小時長開。

kenchou兄,
請問為何落肥時關閉呢?那麼何時再開燈?

請問你們對UV燈有何平價?
你們的缸還有青苔嗎?

UV燈 can only kill algae which is suspending in water. It cannot kill algae already attached to the glass or plants. It can reduce the chance of the infection of algae, but it cannot remove algae in your tank.

I think it is a 'nice to have' things for planted aquarium

I have it, but only turn it on once in a little while. Honestly, I can see no noticible effect on my tank at all. I only have it on when something die just to kill some floating germs, well... in case, but really, can do perfectly well without one, haven't turned it on for a long time.

I concur with Macbrush. In according to my past experience, the UV sterilizer should only turned on when you have to.

Are you the one who bought the filter together with the MCT (or MCI) 5W UV light, if yes, I just stand beside you at that moment.... :-n06 :-n06

其實開UV的時間都是隨個人喜好, 但係以我經驗24小時長開後, d水真係清哂, 我諗都有d接近cystal clear o既境界, 跟未用前差好遠, 可能因為以前青苔o既問題太嚴重, 有少少綠水。雖然仍然有青苔的問題, 但數量已大幅減少。

坦白說, 唔用 uv, 水亦可以清至透明, uv 是可以用來殺綠水同埋遊離o既細菌, uv 開放時間, 當然是隨喜好, 不過是否24小時長開, 就有商確地方了. 如果是充滿綠水, 24小時長開, 可以快些清除綠水, 其實每日開幾小時, 已經足夠了.

真的, 不用uv, 水亦可以非常清晰透明, 不要神化了 uv 的能力了.

我咁講唔係想神化UV的功效, 請不要誤會, 我只不過想講講我的體驗, 確實我用UV後將好多問題解決了, 但係未必對其他人有同樣的功效。

PP-HK 說得對
因為我之前長開UV燈係無綠水加绿藻

UV燈除左除藻之外，最正就是殺死水中的有害細菌和真菌，減少魚仔發病的機會。
