QUESTION OF THE DAY - What do you keep "backups" of just in case you run out?

This hobby is already an expensive hobby but there are some things that you might consider keeping backups of! I hate to run out of something that I need and have to wait on it to arrive. It could actually cost you more money in the long run as a sick fish could pass or algae could take hold...
