Living where I do, I sometimes have loss of electricity during the winter.
Mostly it's just a few hours, so not a concern, but I'm always worried about a longer term power loss, the last severe power cut was 4 days...but at that time I didn't have aquariums to think about!
Keeping the tanks warm enough won't be an issue, I have a log burning stove to take care of that!
But I am worried about the bacteria in my filters.
Could anyone suggest what I could do to prepare for this happening? And put into action when it does.
I have Juwel aquariums, I'm running the internals that came with the tanks, alongside canister filters.
regards,
Fern
