Just wondering really, I don't have an algae problem (or I wouldn't say I do), but every 2 weeks I have to give the glass a quick once over with a scraper to remove GSA. Obviously I'm doing water changes once a week, and it's no hardship for me to give the glass a quick scrape.
Plus it's never too bad, but it's one of those things were I think hmm...surely there has to be something easier than this.
My idea is to buy a very small UV filter.
Either
Aquael Internal UV filter 500 (£24)
or
Internal Aquarium UV Sterilizer (9W) (£25)
So my question is, if I had one of these running for the next few weeks, in theory will it eventually remove any algae spores in the water (obviously only killing GSA when I remove it from the glass.
And is it worth it?
Is there anything I'm not taking into consideration?
