what is your opinions on getting an ozone generator?
is this a good idea for a reef tank?
any negatives?
what are the positives besides clear water and better skimming higher orp?
Is anyone using one?
thank you
 
Are you planning on using an ozone reactor or adding ozone to your skimmer?

Ozone can be beneficial for reducing the yellowing of water in a reef or fowlr.
There can be negatives including ozone destroying pump seals, ozone overdosing, health hazards from breathing ozone, using too much or too little GAC, and bromine in your tank.
In the long term, they general accepted belief is skimming is reduced. High ORP itself is should not be the goal in using ozone, it should only be a way of measuring the effect of the ozone on your system.
I use an avast ozone reactor and red sea generator.

Here is a good place to start research: http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2006-03/rhf/index.php
 
I am thinking of a ozone reactor with air dryer. my orp after have the probe in the tank is 300. Not sure if it is worth getting or not.
this is why i am looking for some opinions.
thank you
