NEED HELP! Burnaby power outage

[Ram3500]

I bought a power inverter last fall when I heard we had a big storm coming but never had to use it . I just hooked it up to a deep cycle battery that I keep charged for a event like this . I have one pump circulating and the lights on as well . I also ran a line to our modem ahh wifi life is good

Thanks to all the reply and help.

I was able to get a hand on battery air pump from a friend.

At least tank is oxygenated, just have to keep eye on tempt that it doesn't drop below 70

Thanks again, maybe it's time to invest in a backup battery

to keep the heat in the tank cover or wrap tank in blankets will help slow the heat loss

I just hooked up a generator. Good to go. Tv, internet and fish tanks. Im set

Mmmm our battery backup is down to 30% might not last the night just running 1 little 3w powerhead..... its depleating the power much faster then we thought.
And im stuck on the island....
And the battery airpump wont do a whole lot for a 65gallon....
I feel terrible telling my family to give the airpump to the salt tank overnight potentially condeming my goldfish to death should have bought another pump when i wanted too in july.... #/@^$& uggh.

This is getting ridiculous. People across the street from me have power and I'm sitting here blowing bubbles in my tank with a turkey baster! I'm starting to worry :/

We use this as a backup. Originally got it for camping but it's perfect to plug in the aquarium when the power goes out.
