Default Skippy Filter man says....

They state per website "This is a bio-Logical filter, therefore all those
fancy UV's and other such stuff are useless. Actually usig a UV with a
biological filter is an oxymoron. The UV kills the bacteria along with the
algae spores and bacterium are one of the keys to make the biological
process happen."

I didn't want to create a stink I just don't understand. Everyone raves
about this filter and I want to use it as my falls. Joann

He said, if i understood correctly, that it would defeat the purpose of

the
filter to have a UV.

if I use his filter. Can someone expound on this?

Depending on pond type, many people find with a Skippy filter, or a

filter
like mine, they don't need their UV after a couple of years, at least
that's what I'm guessing Skippy is talking about. ~ jan
