With the EHEIM reeflexUV+e, you can minimize or completely eliminate microbial contamination and reduce cloudiness in your aquarium water. Now featuring WiFi control.
The reeflexUV+e represents the WiFi-enabled evolution of the trusted EHEIM UV clarifier reeflexUV. The patented reflector technology, which significantly enhances germicidal UV-C radiation, remains unchanged. Unlike traditional UV clarifiers where water takes a circuitous route past the UV-C lamp, the EHEIM reeflexUV+e allows for a more direct flow. This not only prevents power loss but also conserves energy, doubling its efficiency. This model can be integrated with other products from the EHEIM Digital family and can be operated using WLAN-compatible devices such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops. You can select from various modes, set timers and pauses, and even activate a booster mode during severe parasite outbreaks. The reeflexUV+e is designed to complement your filter system by reducing small organisms like germs and algae spores in your aquarium. There are four models available for tanks ranging from 300 to 2000 liters. True to EHEIM’s commitment, it comes with a “Made in Germany” guarantee, ensuring the highest manufacturing and material standards.
Benefits of the EHEIM reeflexUV+e
Efficiently reduces or eliminates harmful microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, viruses, and other pathogens) as well as suspended algae and fish parasites in the water
Patented reflector technology: The innovative arrangement of the UV-C light source and the aquarium water flowing around it, combined with a specialized reflector, guarantees unmatched efficiency with minimal energy consumption
Nearly zero power loss, as the water flows directly without deflections thanks to the clarifier's clever design
Outstanding results: twice as effective when compared to traditional UV clarifiers
Perfect for rearing tanks, as it lowers the risk of infection
Preserves beneficial cleaning bacteria in the filter, capturing only free-floating germs
Simple and safe operation and maintenance
AUTO-OFF: Automatic safety shut-off feature when changing lamps
Easy installation with the included mounting bracket
Flexible installation options, with no specific positioning or flow direction required
Can be connected with other EHEIM Digital products (e.g., synchronizing with aquarium lighting)
Controlled via WLAN-enabled devices (smartphones, tablets, laptops, etc.)
User-friendly and intuitive operation
Three selectable modes: "constant", "daily cycle", "smart coupling"
Customizable operating time, duration, pauses, and more
Booster mode available for tackling urgent parasite issues
Email notifications when lamp replacement is necessary
Made in Germany

Suitable for both freshwater and saltwater aquariums
Caution: UV-C radiation can be harmful to eyes and skin, even in small amounts. The light source in this product is solely intended for the disinfection of aquarium water.
Advanced technology for crystal clear water and healthy fish
In a UV clarifier (also known as a UV sterilizer), aquarium water flows in a thin layer past a UV-C lamp. The UV-C rays penetrate the water, effectively neutralizing germs, algae spores, and other tiny organisms.
Unlike traditional technology that irradiates water from one side, EHEIM has incorporated a reflector that allows the radiation to be mirrored, penetrating the water from multiple angles. This significantly boosts the efficiency of the reeflexUV+e, utilizing the patented EHEIM reflector technology.
Additionally, the EHEIM reeflexUV+e features a straightforward water flow system. The water flows directly around the lamp without any detours, ensuring no loss of performance.
The AUTO-OFF feature provides maximum safety. Since UV-C radiation can pose risks to skin and eyes, the reeflexUV+e automatically shuts off as soon as the unit is opened.
The EHEIM reeflexUV+e is compatible with other products in the EHEIM Digital lineup (e.g., lighting) and can be easily controlled via WLAN-enabled devices (smartphone, tablet, notebook, etc.). The operation is designed to be simple and intuitive.
There are three operational modes available: "constant", "daily cycle", and "smart coupling". You can customize the burn duration, timing, pauses, and more. A booster mode is available for addressing acute parasite infestations. Plus, you will receive an email alert when it's time for a lamp change.
Additionally, it's important to note that:
The concentration of bacteria in an aquarium is typically higher than in natural waters due to the limited volume of water. It’s essential to reduce this concentration to a more natural level. However, the water should not be completely free of germs.
Only the free-floating germs in the water are captured by the UV clarifier, while the bound cleaning bacteria in the filter (biological filtration), substrate bacteria, etc., remain unharmed.
Cloudiness in the water caused by bacteria or floating algae can be effectively eliminated through UV clarification. Essentially, algae growth is suppressed as their spores are destroyed.
UV clarifiers generally lead to healthier fish, as they lower the risk of infections. They are particularly recommended for breeding tanks, where harmful pathogens can latch onto eggs or infect juvenile fish that lack strong defenses.
UV clarification does not typically alter water parameters.
