Power outage

We had a power outage today. The weather is nice so I don’t have to worry about heat for quite a while.

How long until I have to start blowing air bubbles into the tank with a turkey baster? 13.5 gallon evo with 4 fish

i would do it as much as you can. stir up the water every 1/2 hour or so. I lost a ton of fish in a power outage a few years back... it sucked. you can buy battery operated airstone pumps for pretty cheap on amazon. maybe you can get one or 2 delivered and save yourself some headache. good luck.

Personally I’d run to a store and buy a battery operated air pump like mentioned above. That small of a tank, the oxygen can be depleted real quick with no movement.

I solved it with a camper inverter and the car battery by attaching the Jebao DCP4000 electronic return pump for a three-hour black out
