And i guess you could use a spatula to keep water moving? or blowing through a tube every once and awhile

What blowing through a hose or using a spatula? Lol Good times hopefully everything turns out ok

Do you have friends or family you could call and ask them to pick it up for you? just don't tell them its for the fish tank because people without fish tanks don't understand fish tank if you get what I'm saying.

Your neighbor has power?! I'll go knock on their door for you... I've been thinking for 1/2hr how to help, all I can think of is my fj cruiser has a 110v plug in the back but I need it for work at 6 am.
Walmart cap mall is open and most likely has an inverter
I can lend you a large freshly charged marine battery if you need one, I'll pm you my number

And now you know two neighbors! How did the evening go? Did BC Hydro get the power issue resolved?

The issue was resolved this morning.BC hydro made a huge mistake,they were supposed to disconnect my other neighbour's power but instead disconnected mine!i was furious when i found that out and for compensation,I don't have to pay my bill for the next two months.it could've lost thousands of dollars worth of corals from that boo boo.its a good thing that there are good people out there willing to lend a helping hand
