What's a ozonizer for?

Can attach a pic if possible

Hey this is what ozonizer is for..

An message from- http://www.thekrib.com/Filters/ozonizers.html

Ozone is a highly reactive form of oxygen, that helps reduce ammonia

and nitrites, helps kills bacteria and viruses, and has enormous

cleaning potential.

Ozonizers work with an air pump. The air pump pushes air through

the ozone generating unit, where a discharge tube converts some of

the O2 into O3. The O2/O3 air mixture is then injected into the

tank water, usually in either a special ozone reaction chamber, or

as part of the Venturi intake on a protein skimmer. This treated

water is then usually run through a carbon chamber to convert the

excess O3 into CO2, before returning the water to the tank. Some

people just dump the treated water into a flow-thru basket full of

carbon, as a much cheaper alternative to a carbon chamber.
