Can you all recommend one to me for my 110 gal system?
 
My experience only...take for what it is. Perhaps that piece is no longer there since it was three years ago. I had a full sps tank crash due to a coralife UV 18 watt. There is a cheap metal ring that they use in the internal housing that is not saltwater proof and that corrode and rust over time...6 months. I could not figure it out until I shut down my system and took it out to clean and figured it out. I now use Aqua UV...can't go wrong with that brand.

Experienced that too with the metal housing. I called coralife and they replaced the piece for me.
 
Keep hands off the Coralife, the steel parts in there will corrode. Not a good design and messy bulb holder.
