4 hour power outage

[Ellypho]

Hello

I just recently heard the tomorow morning from 8 to 12 the power will be off. Now i fear that the lack of water flow to my bio wheel may cause my bacteria to die. If i were to put the wheel in the tank would that keep my bacteria alive?

Yes as a matter of fact that is a very good idea, good thinking on your part. Good luck with the outage, and take care with the temperature too, it may be summer, but it is not that warm now, and in that time frame, you could lose a lot of heat for the tank even if you are comfortable.

I did some experimenting that started by accident. Click Here for the thread and the tests results regarding filter media without power. Hope it is helpful.
