Help with OZONE

[jusbechillin]

So to run Ozone I need the following.....

Ozone generator
Redox Controller
Air dryer
Crappy extra Skimmer to use as a reactor
ORP Probe


Right?

Can I get away without any of those or I need all? Trying to figure out if I can afford to do this now or not.... Also would the following be just about the best buy I can get on the whole deal?



Part Number: OZ-RS32200

Brand Name: Red Sea

Description: AquaZone Deluxe 200mg/hr with built-in Redox (ORP) controller and ORP probe. Includes 250 gram reusable air dryer. When correctly applied to aquarium water, ozone kills bacteria and other harmful pathogens and breaks down ammonia and organic waste materials, raising the ORP to desirable levels. One of the most visible results of ozone as part of aquarium filtration is the change in the water's color from an unappealing yellow cast to a healthy looking natural clear color. Utilizes high frequency switching technology. Designed for use in a humid environment. No regular maintenance required. Automatically controls the flow of ozone according to a pre-set ORP. Easy to read backlit digital display. Easy adjustment of ozone output & desired ORP. Continuous display of current OPR.

why do you want to run ozone? that's probably the biggest need, a solid rationale.

u do not have to have a controller if u use the probe and manually control. U can buy an ozone gen. that does not require a dryer. U can inject ozone into your skimmer without any problems.

I have a red sea aquazone. I have had such issues with the fuses etc.. If I had to do it over, I would buy ozotech.

crappy skimmer... Not necessarily, find out if your current skimmer is ozone safe. Most are.

Air dryer. You will get fed up of those crappy silicone beads and skip using them all together and take the 25% less production for convienence.

Redox controller, a must. I think they will come with an orp probe.

I want Ozone for several reasons.... general water quality. Crystal clear look... help keep algae down.. etc.

I will keep looking... it seems like a whole system can be had used under $200.
