Installation of UV light

[mecedesfish]

A newly set up of 4x2x2 tank. The only new equipment that i brought is my resun CL650 and set my temp at 25 d.

I couldn't confirmed on my H2O colour (brown/green) because i brought a new DW with Taiwan moss, But i have also have a old DW with nana from my old tank which i did not take good care.

i had also change H2O on Mondayand this was the 1 time that i change it since late Dec 05.This morning i realise that my nana leaf have some algae and DW grow some green algae on it. I cut the leaf off, other plant are HC on foreground and intent to change the H2O tom.

The lighting on my tank 36 x 8 nos. intented to install UV light but..........
From filter,UV light and to chiller or some other way to install?

What should be the correct installation of UV light and how long must the UV light on per day?

Cheer!

my suggestion is

canister filter -> uv -> chiller.

about 6-24 hours a day is fine.

i will be installing it today, but what do u think of placing from filter to chiller to uv light.

From my pervious tank, the light pre-set timer started togather with uv light ; from 0600 to 0710 and 1630 to 2345 hrs.

Thanks
