TARARIUM Aquarium Filter CTUV-H6F Black Dual UV Filtration for 20-75

Description

Product Overview

The TARARIUM CTUV-H6F is a high‑performance aquarium filter designed for tanks ranging from 20 to 75 gallons. Housed in a sleek black enclosure, it combines a biochemical sponge filter with a 254nm UV light to eliminate algae, bacteria, and odors. The unit measures 11.73 x 6.97 x 3.11 inches and weighs just 1.61 pounds, making it compact yet powerful. Its dual‑switch design lets you operate the pump and UV light independently, giving you full control over filtration and illumination.

Usage

Perfect for freshwater and lightly stocked marine setups, the CTUV-H6F excels in community tanks, planted aquariums, and breeding environments. Simply place the filter in a corner, connect to a 24V DC power source, and let the built‑in pump circulate water through the sponge and UV chamber. The separate switches allow you to run the pump alone during daylight hours and activate the UV light at night to target green water and reduce smell.
