Hi all. My power is out. I have an emergency backup, but it failed. It's been about 9 hours. I have been agitating the water on my 150g reef every hour, but some of the fish are not looking great. Is there anything else I can do? It's 2am, everything is closed or I would go get a generator. Help.

24/7 big box store for battery air pump. Depending where you live bait and tackle shops also have them and they open stupid early. From there I would go get a UPS as you may not be able to get a sine generator in town. Even if you can UPS can run airstones for days with no need for generator. After all that, what are the temperatures like there? May need to pick up some zip-locs and ice. Stay as calm as you can, think clear, execute. Good luck.
