Does this fit the Imagitarium IN-FIL 5 2.5-5 gallon filter?

If it clips onto the filter does it interfere with putting on the aquarium cover?

Answer by Chewy • Aug 17, 2020
This UV Sterilizer does not interfere with the cover of an aquarium.

Ik it says 20 gallons but Could you use this on a 29 gallon tank?

Answer by Chewy • Jan 07, 2021
This sterilizer is only designed for tanks up to 20 gallons, it is not recommended for larger.

Is this safe to work on a 20 gallon tank?

would not align with the chute once clipped on

This is clips onto the filter and the light is suppose to align with the outflow chute so it can be like a spot light shining to the water passing thru the chute

This is clips onto the filter and the light is suppose to align with the outflow chute so it can be like a spot light shining to the water passing thru the chute. The problem I had was it would not align with the chute once clipped on.

Give it time

I have a 20 gallon tank that is unfortunately in front of a window, only place it would fit. It was very quickly taken oven by algae. It got so bad that I couldn't even see in the tank anymore. I tried water changes, wrapping the tank to protect it from the sunlight, and changing the filter frequently. I purchased this filter to give it a try. After 2 weeks, I was disappointed to see no change at all. During that time I was still doing frequent water changes. I was almost ready to give up on this filter. Then all of a sudden the tank started to look clearer. Now it is back to crystal clean water. I am very happy with this product, but just be warned it does take time. So don't give up too soon.

We had an ongoing problem with cloudy water, even after doing weekly 30% changes. Put this in the tank and overnight the water was clear, has stayed clear for several months with no other effort. Like the fact that it’s low voltage for use in water.

Our established tank was struggling with serious algae bloom; we started to see a big change at the end of the first day and by the end of the week it was crystal clear. Additionally, our Beta loved the new slower water flow.
