UV vs. Algae

I think I will get MH lights for that much.... Is there one that is good enough and cheaper?

 

WOW ok what do you think of this?
UV Sterilizer Module (40W 1-1/4" slip in, 1" slip out)
$151.99

Strange wording on this page makes me wonder if the uv light actually comes with this module? what do you guys think?

 

If I use this should I be concerned with the bulb getting to 100 degrees and effecting the temp of the tank?

 

Why not just get an ozone unit. As someone else quoted " more bang for your buck"

ozone units are a adjustment system and you have to watch them carfully.... uv is plug and play
