So, I just set up a UV sterilizer in my aquarium. I'm curious if this is a good setup:

My concern is that too much UV light could escape from those tubes. The fittings are made of semi-opaque blue plastic. They glow when the light is on. Do I need to worry about UV light escaping through them?

Also, if not, could the UV light that (possibly) comes out of the tubes be harmful to my fish?
