gmerek2 February 6, 2014 February 6, 2014 If your tank is having a temperature problem still be careful pumping the cold water change water in! Why does power outage call for water change?
flooddc February 6, 2014 February 6, 2014 If your tank is having a temperature problem still be careful pumping the cold water change water in! Why does power outage call for water change? Yeah! I don't think you need to do a water change...don't see any reason for it! Unless, you're one of those fortunate one that your significant other also into reefing, you will need all the excuse you can get!
lutz123 February 6, 2014 February 6, 2014 It wouldn't be a bad idea to have saltwater made. There could be a little die off, but I doubt it will be much. I would try to hold off for a day or so just to allow the saltwater a chance to mix well. Everything you have should be pretty forgiving. Does the generator have a thingamajig to make sure it produces clean power for sensitive aquarium equipment?

sen5241b February 14, 2014 February 14, 2014 An auto power inverter can keep a small pump running (and a heater?) .
gmerek2 February 15, 2014 February 15, 2014 An auto power inverter can keep a small pump running (and a heater?) . Depends on how many watts the inverter is rated for and how many watts the equipment draws. But yes definetly. My mp40 draws less than 100 watts. Will last a long time on regular car battery
gmerek2 February 15, 2014 February 15, 2014 I bought 400 watt inverter at Harbour freight. I have 300 more watts to work with a heater. I would probably just grab my 200watt heater.
GaryL February 15, 2014 February 15, 2014 at quantum reefs i saw battery operated air pumps, might want to get one as a backup to the backup. always have a plan.
