The gallons per hour going through the UV is the key.

How big is the pump? (Brand & model # is fine) How many watts is the UV? (model # is fine)

It is also best to leave the UV off for the first couple of months until ammonia and nitrite cycles happen. Let the green go and keep an eye on the ammonia and nitrites first.
