Ozone generator and reef tank

[jasonrusso]

I have been thinking about getting a few of these for the house and my parents have me one tonight. It's basically an Ozone generator that purifies the air.

It's there any issues with the tanks? Will it cause pH swings? I already run my skimmer air lines outside so that won't be affected.

Many of us run ozone directly to our tanks, and a lot more of it than a typical room ozone generator.

What is the point of Ozone in a tank? Is it for parasites?

To avoid algae, eliminate paracitos, clarify the water, but it has to be with a dedicated generator and a safe ozone skimmer or reactor

Ozone will not appreciably impact pH.

The main intended/accomplished purpose is to reduce yellowing of the water.

I'm not running Ozone into water, just a ozone air purifier.

From what I can tell, it will have little to no impact. Which is what I want.
