Okay r2r I’m back with another question trying to expand my knowledge just a little more to take that next step in this awesome hobby we have. Hope this question well help me many others and at the same time help some people revise their plans.
this week my question is on power outages. For those who haven’t ever seen my other posts I live in sunny south Florida and this past month we’ve had 2 hurricane scares along with this one currently (doubt it’s going to amount to anything but we’ll see.)
that being said obviously power outages from storms is a real concern for me especially long power outages. Our house doesn’t have a 80k dollar house generator so we use a gas powered one.
I’m assuming the main life supports are heat, nutrients (cal, alk est.), light and flow. I have everything set up on an apex
2 1k gyres
1 return
1 skimmer
3 channel t5
1 heater
1 dose pump
Wifi camera
Atk
wondering what everyone’s plans are, what’s the first thing you do, what do you do to prepare if you assume you’re going to have a power outage, what about the unknown power outages, are there any life supports that you sacrifice and do by hand to save power ex: dosing, top off?
as always thanks for the help and the input
