Hi Reefers,  quick question please.  My condo is scheduling a power outage for maintenance from 9 to 5pm. 

What can I get by with and cannot and what can be done about those that I cannot?  An Uninterrupted Power Supply unit can't power up a chiller and lights can it?

Thanks so much!

For my last power outage maintenance, i only prep ice bottle in advance, battery backup connect to wavemaker is sufficient. In the end, maintenance only lasted 2-3 hrs, technicians like to give alot buffer time in case of emergency haha..i didnt even manage to use ice bottles and power is already back..Corals and fish without light for few hrs is definitely fine. Hope it helps.

Thanks so much for the helpful comments.  In terms of battery backup, what did you use?  Also, won't aeration be the most important too? 


I using coral box battery backup, can check with reefmarket sg. Do check compatibility with ur wavemaker, not all is compatible. Aeration is the most important, the wavemaker is providing the aeration. just make sure wavemaker is creating surface agitation and u r good to go. Hope it helps.
