If your bulbs are SE, there's no need to run a UV filter - they have them built in. Only double ended bulbs need filters, and for the most part, reflectors or pendants designed to hold them have the filter built in.

If you don't need one, I'd leave it out. It'll just get covered in salt creep and reduce your light output. Plus, it'll trap in extra heat.
