No Lights. Need your advice
 
My two AI Sol Blue power supplies (black box) has busted same time yesterday. I probably order online and takes week or more. How long my mixed reef (SPS, LPS and Fishes) tank is OK without light? I don't have an extra lights. Please give me some advice.
Thanks

They should be OK for a few days but I'd recommend getting a temporary light until you get what you want. They won't be happy about no light.

Thanks. Does anyone have a spare lights to borrow for 48?

I had no lights for 3-4 days and my sps and lps did better then when I had light. They should be ok for a week. But any longer your corals might suffer abit

Sorry I skipp yours. Thanks for your offer but I'll try to get near Richmond area. Central Surrey is little bit far for me due to my kids event on weekend.

You could get these power supplies locally. They are common. They you do not have to worry about the corals suffering.
