The new AUQA Shield UV Sterilizer by Innovative Marine is designed to tuck nicely in the NUVO all-in-one aquariums plus will also feature a universal model to add to other AIO or sump setups.
There are two sizes of the AUQa Shield UV Sterilizer made for the NUVO Aquariums, a 9W for the NUVO Fusion and Concept Desktop aquariums and an 11W for the Fusion and Concept Midsize tanks. Each of these feature a UV-C bulb in a disposable UV cartridge (quartz sleeve and pump) and a gravity flow design.
Simply drop the the AUQA Shield in the overflow column and the water is pulled around the bulb as it heads towards the filtration chamber. It also has a sponge prefilter for a bit of added mechanical filtration.
If you don’t have a NUVO AIO, they will be releasing a 10W AUQA Shield Universal UV Reactor that uses the same up-flow pattern as the MiniMax reactors and the disposable UV cartridges. This one will simply drop in to a sump or other AIO chamber to provide the same benefits.
The AUQA Shield UV Sterilizer will run $49.99 for the desktop, $59.99 for the midsize and $99.99 for the universal.
