    Does anyone have any diagrams or videos or pics on how the UV is set up around their sump? External UV if possible... Please Help.

    Sump set up in three sections (Skimmer/Fuge/Return)
    Does it go before the skimmer? or hooked up after the skimmer?

    i don't think it really matters where it is located, as long as you have tank water going through it.

    Well do you know what type of plumbing is needed? I'd honestly like to put it coming from my skimmer section then off to my return section but just not sure on what is needed.. I need a diagram.. :p I'm just blinded by how this is going to work or is laid out.

    when i had mine hooked up, i just had a small pump connected to flex hosing that ran into the sterilizer, then more flex hosing coming out the other end that dumped back into the return section of the sump. Really nothing to setting one up. Just 2 hoses.
