Lost power for 28 hours - had 24 battery operated air pumps running in the tanks!

Seriously need to find a long-lasting battery backup option for the tanks. Anyone know much about Uninterruptible power supplies? Like are there any that last for hours?

The last storm he had to use a generator on his salt tank. He was out of power a week+.

They'll have no power for 5 days or so.

I think a generator would be a better investment.

No damage to our home, fortunately. We used a generator and battery powered air pumps in our tanks. All of our fish survived.
