Hi' bluescorpion93
uv light is to kill bacteria
i mean that the tank is bacteria free.

I'm using one. Mainly to get rid of green water. No problems.

But mine's a cheaper, lousy one. So it took a while before I saw the difference for my green water problem. It hasn't completely gone away, neither.

Shrimps won't die. They won't even get in contact with the UV light (in theory).
