What can ozone do for the aquarium? Ozone is a very reactive form of oxygen that can destroy an enormous variety of liquid waste materials and toxins. For aquariums, the use of an ozone generator offers a simple, highly effective method to maintain a clean and stable environment for the plants and animals. The ORP (Oxidation, Reduction Potential or Redox) is a measure of the oxidization capacity of water. The injection of ozone into the water can improve the efficiency of protein skimming and raises the ORP (Redox potential),thus increasing oxygen levels (NO2 + O3 = NO3 + O2)and decreasing dissolved wastes; additionally, ozone can effectively kills numerous harmful pathogens. The decomposition of toxic nitrite is enhanced whilst the bacteria count in the water decreases, minimizing the risk of ill health in the animals. The compounds that produce yellow coloring in the aquarium are broken down and the water stays crystal clear. It is important to remember that very low doses of ozone can yield excellent results in most cases, and that overdosing can be harmful to aquarium inhabitants. MORE IS NOT ALWAYS BETTER! You also do not want high concentrations of ozone to escape into the air, as it is a lung irritant at high levels.Our ozone generator utilizes the latest technology for safety and reliability and can be used either as a stand-alone unit or with an ORP Controller. Maximum Output: 150mg / hr Dimension: L 8" x W 7"x H 2.5" Designed for 110V / 60Hz 7Watts Instructions: Use an air pump to introduce fresh air through the inlet marked with “IN”. The air will be treated to contain a higher concentration of O3. For fresh water tanks, the air tube connected to the outlet should be attached to an air stone. For the salt water tanks, the air tube connected to the outlet should be attached to a reactor/diffuser or protein skimmer equipment (Air pump and stone are not included).

Good.
I have been using this for over a year with a apex and it works great. I use a time limit to controlozone and strong pump to move air straight into my protein skimmer. Went from One bta to over 10 bta and tanks very healthy. It's electronic discharge so absolutely no water near it, on it etc..and use dryer and no problems works great.

I liked the instruction sheet
Product arrived quickly and as described. I liked the instruction sheet, and it was accurate and useful. Works well, for the fist week so far.The Silicone output tube does get warm after a few minutes of operation. But I cycle my unit twice a day for a half hour each time for my size tank.Did not use my ORP sensor and computer this go around. Ozone does breakdown the air stone after time, so I purchased Bubblemac Industries Diffusers to try it out. The AquaTek works well.

Cheep trash
DO NOT BUY THIS TRASH. Installed and ran 24-7 for 4 months. Opened the unit up to find everything rusted out. The fuse block was so corroded it was falling apart. The potentiometer was not functional (confirmed with meter) I re soldered all the connections to verify the wiring is working. The transformer is intermittent on the output and no voltage was being registered. Case in point. This thing was built out of cheep parts that will not withstand contact with ozone. Save money and buy something else.

BEWARE. They only warrantee their product for 3 months. Save your money.
It seems to not work. It's less than 9 months old. How long is this warrantied for? Should be a year at least I'd think. I had it away from the aquarium and had the o3 hosed in. Not sure what's wrong. So it seems they only warrantee their product for 3 months. I'd give them zero stars if I could. I can understand something that's 20 bucks having a short warranty but this was $85 bucks.

Good adjustability.
It keeps my water crystal clear.

Failed, failed again.
Purchased one, died within a week. Took two weeks to get the replacement, which died at 94 days (4 days past return point). I've written the company twice with no reply. Was running with quality air drier and pump.
