I was looking into uv filters for my 55g tank as an extra measure for water quality/clarity and was looking at the Coralife Turbo Twist 9 watt, but it states that the water flow through the filter should be between 100-200gph and I have an Eheim 2026 which has an approximately 250 gph? Any thoughts or suggestions? I liked what I read about the turbo twist but saw the most important factor is to "size" one for your flow rate on your filter?
What UV filter for a 55g with an Eheim 2026?

On my 240 I have 2 uv sterilizers they are jebo and are both 36 watts I run them on cascade 1500's. and the biggest problem when they say match the flow rate with the watts is the level of water being exposed to the light. to much flow not enough exposure. If used properly they work extremely well with bacteria and slowing down algae blooms.
