Hey there Laurie I ran a 9X 36 W UV on my 170 and honestly i didnt see anything special about the unit. If you are wanting to try some thing get a Ozone unit that worked great for me and i loves it. i ran a 200mg red unit on mine it cleared up the water so much and helped with the algae a bit too. but it will cause Nitrates thou, since it convets Ammonia and Nitites to Nitrates fast thou. i has a hard time getting rid of my nitrates to so.....



HTH
