Our aquarium and pond UV Sterilizers run the gamut of in-tank and nano-tank UVs to industrial units for large ponds. With offerings from Lifegard Aquatics, Aqua Ultraviolet, IceCap, OASE, and Fluval, we have something for every situation.

There are THREE types of UV sterilizer set-ups, the in-line , the in-tank (or in-pond) and the hang-on types (some sterilizers can be hooked up as a hang-on or an in-tank sterilizer). For most ponds and tanks above 100 gallons you will need to get an in-line UV sterilizer.

Assuming full-time use, UV sterilizer lamps should be replaced once a year. Please keep in mind that you need to use a lamp made by the same company that made your UV sterilizer. Lamps are usually not cross-compatible as UV lamps are modified T5 bulbs and every manufacturer does it a little differently.

The most commonly needed UV sterilizer replacement parts (other than lamps, which are in their own section) are the delicate quartz sleeves and ballasts (power supply). We also have o-rings and various fittings for most of the UVs we carry. As with the bulbs, UV sterilizer parts are not cross-compatible. An Aqua Ultraviolet will not work in a Lifegard Sterilizer and vice-versa.
