    Best place for submersible uv

    As the title please boys and girls . Where is the best (CHEAP !!!!!!!!!!!) Place to buy a new one

    Ran a submersible uv from burtons in the inlet of the nexus last year worked a treat. Switched it off and pulled it out thought I had done right to protect it . WRONG just got to sort the filter bay out bit spring clean ect till i stuck my hand down to find a lump of quartz was waiting to bite me . Think it must have got frozen up and quartz smashed and now there is water in the uv bulb tube it's self aswell !!!!!

    Not sure on that one mate so let someone else advise.

    Would have thought somewhere with vigorous water movement.
