Has anyone tried using a pump with a built in UV Clarifier or a seperate water line uv clarifier to keep algae at bay? Seems like a great idea...works wonders for small ponds...typically what there made for. I seen one at the depot for $110 built into a submersible pump....looks like it would be awesome for DWC recirculating or a bubbleponic setup. I was thinking of using one of the more typical models that have waterline connectors at both ends and have replacable uv bulbs in case they burn out....would go good on my ebb & gro. With algae out of the picture water would only have to be changed as nutrients lessen or strengthen depending on the plants usage. Seems one could mix a solution to either side of spectrum to strengthen nutes or weaken nutes in another container and add to main res as needed to slowly bring up to par, So it wont be so drastic like adding nutes directly to the main res and it jumping too high.
Just a thought I guess.
IF anyone has used them or are using them...does it kill benficials like the several popular root innoculants?
