Got a call from my power company today that there will be a 7 hour scheduled outage for maintenance. I have 6 days to prepare. I called for more info and they said “It could be less than 7 hours, could be more.”
Tank is 75 gallon 20 gallon sump
med-light fish stock
mixed reef, mostly LPS and SPS
I have no battery backup or generator. Its out of the question since im tight on money right now.
The temp is supposed to be high 40’s so it wont be too cold but not really warm either. My biggest fear is temperature and oxygen.
The best thing ive come up with it to wrap the tank in something to keep it from losing temp too much and maybe buying an aerator for fishing bait? Basically an airstone and a small pump. My tank has survived a 4-5 hour outage easily a month or so ago. I dont know if a few extra hours will make a difference.
What do yall think?
