I’m just wondering how long an aquarium might survive unattended, without power?
I am asking because my town is under evacuation alert, which is likely to turn into an order. Around here, once towns are evacuated, they shut off the power, presumably for safety reasons.
Anyways, I have a battery powered air pump, that is good for about 48 hours. Assuming my town doesn’t burn to the ground, about how long can I be away before I can expect to come home to a dead tank? It’s a 55 gallon with an 18” moray, marine betta and a 2.5” maroon clown. Small BTA, and a handful of CuC. Two 4” GSP. Ambient room temperature is in the mid 60s.
I mean, if I have to go, I have to go, but am just kind of curious, as some places have had orders rescinded in as little as a week or two, but many are much longer.
