outage

For no apparent reason my power went off this morning as I was leaving for work. I HATE power outages! :mad: I have large back-up batteries for all the tanks and either sponges or bubblers in or near all the tanks, so it wasn't too hard to hook everything up to keep oxygen flowing. I decided it...

Just lost power at the house. Hope it doesn't last too long!!!

Well with the storm yesterday I lost power for 12 hours. I woke up in the middle of the night after it had been out for 3 hours. So I fire up my generator, re routed a few plugs and my fish room was up and running. Essentially I had just a couple,4, plugs to connect: Central air pump, 1...

I was wondering if anybody ever turn a marine battery for boat into a power source to run an air pump during power outage.

2 dead snowflake plecos, 1 common pleco and 2 gramoodes.... tank was completetly dead upon my return on sunday evening. Apparently power went out and out of the 11 tanks this one seems like the heater and hob filter never came back on... just shaking my head right now... but it could have...

Yup. BGE is testing their power grid in Catonsville July 19 8:30 to noon.. Yes, I know that is today.. Then there is an alternate date of Friday July 22 If the power is shut off what should I be doing? ( Already did major water change earlier this week.)

My electric was just restored after being off for 15 hours. What do I need to do in my fish room? The tank temperatures are 72F degrees I have canisters on my 2 larger tanks, 110g and 65g aquaclear 110's and on my 2- 40g's the other 10 tanks, 20g's & 10g's all have foam filters. Baby Brine...

Hey all, Since we lost power and I lost some fish due to no heat I think it would be neglectful to not take action should this happen again, especially since we are expecting the possibility of more power losses this week. I was told the best option would probably be an Uninterrupted Power...

We're without power, as a result of this morning's storm, and I'm not expecting power for several days, based on what I've heard. Luckily, I did a water change last night in each of my three tanks. Guess I'll be doing water changes every evening for the next few days. Anyone have a guess...

I really need to get some of those battery-back-up thingamagigs. I hate the potential for power outages and get really stress out. What do you folks use? I'm not talking about a generator or the short-term computer back-ups things, but that product that is like a marine battery into which you...
