- Using a UV sterilizer in a reef tank What is the sterilizer? It is a container, usually in a near tube shape, in which an ultraviolet (UV) fluorescent lamp is contained. The lamp emits light at around 254 nm. The lamp is constructed of quartz glass to prevent the UV being absorbed as it would be if ordinary glass were used. The lamp is in a container of its own to shield it from the water, and then there is an outer container. The space between the containers is very small allowing full penetration of UV light. The water is passed between the outer and inner containers by a pump or power head.

- Do One Thing: Buy Rechargeable Batteries. Everything from remote controls to smoke detectors to flashlights to clocks use batteries that eventually run out of juice and have to be thrown away. And although batteries are considered "e-waste" and should be discarded as such, most of them end up going out with the trash. And once they are in the landfill, the insides of the batteries leach into the ground, possibly contaminating groundwater. Our solution, at least to extend the length of time the same batteries are used in our house? We invested in a battery charger and different sized rechargeable batteries, and have not had to either buy new batteries nor throw any away in over 2 years.
