On 9/02 BGE is shutting down power for 8 hours for some line work. I finally have a mature mixed/mainly sps/mainly acro tank and I’m kinda freaking. Probably needlessly but better safe than sorry. I know when I order acros they are in much much less water with no flow/filtration/lights for triple the 8 hours and they arrive traumatized but ok.
On a 29g tank I have1300gph divided among 3 PHs, a HOB filter (200gph), and a slimmer of I’ll-repute (works GREAT for me) adding 100gph, and 2 kessil A360X’s. I have a 350wph backup battery.
Light and flow are what I need to concentrate on. I can run both lights and 3 powerheads for 2-2 1/2 hours. Assuming I’m not completely over reacting to 8 hours of no power, how should I handle this?? Should I do half hour on and off for example? Should I wait and turn it on as late as possible? Any advice?
