Default UV Clarifyers

Some will tell you that you don't need a uv, just more plants. For the
early spring startup, when the plants are not up to the task, the uv does an
excellent job of controlling the green water. Be sure to get one sized to
the water flow rate from your pumps. It takes a certain amount of uv to
kill the algae, and if the water is moving through the uv system too fast,
then the algae is barely sunburned. As far as brands, I don't think there
is a whole lot of difference.

What are your thoughts about UV clarifyers -
Do they work, and if so which one would you recommend.
