Hi guys and gals. As the title states have a planned power outage for 8 hours at my office. I have a 16g tank a 13.5g tank and a 20g sump all interconnected with the same return pump. Was thinking a single air stone for each tank and the sump should be enough for an 8 hour outage? Ambient temperature is around 72 degrees.


What would Reef2Reef do?

I have kept tanks fine with an air stone during power outages for days. My fish load is low but you should be good.

I agree, one airstone is plenty for each for way more than eight hours. I have also had outages of days and everything was fine with just an airstone.
