Green Killing Machine Internal UV Sterilizer with Power HeadThe Green Killing Machine Internal UV Sterilizer with Power Head is a completely submersible UV sterilizer and power head in one. UV radiation is effective in controlling bacteria, yeast, molds and other pathogens, in turn controlling algae growth. Water flows in direct contact with the UV lamp, intensifying its function of fighting green water. In addition, it can be hidden behind ornaments in your aquarium, cutting back on tubing around your tank. The unit is designed for water to flow through in a zig zag pattern to maximize the exposure to the UV bulb making it incredibly efficient and effective.Features:Water pump includedSimple 1-2-3 installationSubmersible assemblyNo external pipes or plumbingSuction cup mounting - no hardware requiredLED signals need for UV bulb replacementElectrically child safe 12V low voltage designZigzag flow designs for maximum sterilizing timeUV Radiation at a wavelength of 254mn making the unit extremly effectiveFiltration pump and sponge inclusive

great experience - great product - but the instructions...
I took a chance on a relatively new vendor and I'm glad I did. Hats off to the Umbrella Group. Everything went smoothly and the product was delivered in good shape and on time.
I'm very pleased with the unit. I needed a UV filter for a smaller tank with a hanging filter (so an in-line wouldn't work) and was very happy to find this at a great price. It's whisper-quiet and includes a power head for great circulation.
Two small words to the wise:
1) The product is a snap to set up if you're a little mechanically inclined because the instructions that come with it leave something to be desired. The illustrations are microscopic and the text says to see illustrations that don't exist.
2) Make sure you look at ALL the photos before you decide to put this in a smaller tank (20 g or less). It takes up more room than the main picture might lead you to believe but is rated up to 50g.
With that said, I would heartily recommend this to anyone who's ever dealt with an...

Control Box failed at 4 weeks
I was happy with this unit, seemed like a sane and useful design, however it failed at around 4 weeks of operation. If I am able to get warranty service, or otherwise the issue resolved I'll update this review but right now I can't recommend it.
At 4 weeks or so the control box red light went out which should indicate the UV lamp needed replacing. That's terrible but I wondered if that might not be just a defective light, etc. I just went ahead and purchased a new lamp, figured I'd use it in the long run regardless, however the control box indicator light is still out so that's not it, apparently the 'control box' has failed. I'm attempting to get warranty service from the manufacturer because I'm over the 30 day return policy.
Awesome!
Two of my kids tanks turned green while we were away on vacation. I think our neighbors overfed the fish. Anyway, after chasing the algae blooms on the 5 and 10 gallon tanks without success (repeated cleanings and water changes), I purchased the Green Killing Machine. After 48 hours in the pea-soup green 10 gallon tank, the water was noticeably cleaner. After 72 hours, the water was crystal clear. Then I transferred the unit to the 5 gallon tank. After 48 hours, it too is crystal clear.
If you have an algae bloom, this is your ticket.
