Does UV kill everything

[The Codfather]

UV usually doesn't kill, it sterilizes. To some degree high enough concentrations of UV will kill though the sterilizer, but the primary role is to sterilize to control algae, bacteria, etc.

a QT tank attached to your main display does nothing apart from maybe getting a stressed out fish to start eating.
you cannot do copper or hypo treatments and any disease in a fish going into your QT will also be in your main display and sump

right, i think i better scrap that idea

I've tried both UV and Ozone, and I'm a huge Ozone fan.
The crystal clear water made the investment worth it alone.

As for Ich control, I found it was very good since I fed Ozone to my skimmer and a high percentage of total water goes through it.

I might just be thinking out loud, but doesn't ozone also help skimmers work more a tad efficiently?
