Default Power Outage

I have a power outage at my home. My tank is only 6 weeks old, so not too much in there. It is 150 gallon reef, with 5 smaller fish and some frags. Any idea how long it can survive without power?

Default Re: Power Outage

Can you do small water changes daily with what would be the correct temperature of water for your fish? We had a 3 day power outage once in winter, house got to 55 degrees, I kept the tank wrapped to insulate, added warm water a few times a day to keep temp within normal limits and to keep aerating the water. Just be sure not to change water temp more than 2 degrees during changes. Hope you get your power back soon!
