Looking to add ozone.

If anyone knows where I can get a controller and an ozone generator, let me know. I don't know much about setting them up, but I think I can figure it out.

This is where I got my stuff from:

My Enaly Ozone Generator does get hot and the bottom plastic has slightly deformed due to the heat, but it seems to work well. It is a budget model but performs well enough for my use.

I have to clean my ORP probe every couple of weeks in vinegar as it seems to give slightly higher readings than actual over time.

Total cost for Ozone: Less than $175

As an FYI, I had purchased one of these Enaly O3 generators to replace a 20 year old Sanders that had died. After running for a month, it failed. The plastic bottom discolored and melted. I'm awaiting a warranty replacement. Good price, high O3 output, but not sure about longevity at the moment.

The Milwaukee ORP controllers are great and very affordable.

Paul, that ozone generator is not specifically for aquariums. Is there any difference, and how ling have you been using that unit?

[murfman]

all ozone generators do one thing, make ozone. it doesnt matter if it is a high yield unit or low, the ORP controller will control your dosing. I have had the unit I gave Doug since I got it from Russ earlier this year and have had the 400 unit since April. No issues from either one. I am currently running ozone to clean up the tank then will shut it down for 3 weeks.
