Generators

[The Salty Reefer]

Do come in so so handy, we have Battery back up also, but dropped power for 6 hours today due to a massive storm, fired up the small generator and got everything going, worked a treat, lifesaver

We had just a 90 minute outage in MN last weekend. I dug our my small Powerhorse generator from Northern Tool right away. It has saved my tanks from cold temps and lack of circulation/oxygen 4 times now. Powerful enough to run my return pumps and heaters. I wouldn’t go without having one on hand.

A backup power plan should be part of every reef setup.

Learned that lesson the hard way once. Lost power for 24 hours. Bought a generator that will run everything in my tank, plus the TV and beer cooler in my man cave.

Yes indeed! Get one before the power goes out though - trying to find/buy a generator after the power has gone out is not a pleasant experience.
