For the record, in case folks didnt know....
I like UV lights... I like the concept... I understand teh concpet as to kill some critters as they pass by the UV bulb... I also understand that the UV light wont kill everything that passes in front of it, just the critters that pass by slow enough to be affected by the UV light. This 'DWELL' time is different for different critters.
the level of affection can be either enough to kill them outright or to alter thier DNA sp hat the affected critter can not or will not be able to to reproduce...
either way the net affect is a 'decrease' in population . . .
My goal / net affect is to decrease the population or physical count to a level that can be handled by the 'system'...i.e. handled = naturally dealt with or dealt with by the materials/foods/equipment/auto-immune, etc...
I do admit that UV lights will not create a sterile environement, and that a sterile environemnt is not a goal, nor should it be...
I also think that UV lights are over rated and that folks should not count on it as a a 'cure all' or that it will be a fix all situation... i.e. if you have ich or some other parasite, and think that by pluggin in a UV light that it will fix that problem then you might still have that problem when you are done...
Anyways, I believe that your problem will still exist when you a done
