What do you have for a power outage backup plan? I might have a large computer UPS laying around, which can run a low wattage tunze flow pump (or the like) pointed at the surface for like 2-3 days. It might need new batteries, but these are not expensive on Amazon and cheaper than a new fish. These make an EcoTech type of backup look like throwing a baseball at a school bus.

I can look if you need something. I can see if I can round up a UPS and I think that I have a box full of brand new Rossmont Mover pumps which do move a lot of water for low wattage.

I’m good. We recently bought a 2.5 kw back up for at home after the power was out for 3 hours. It can run our whole tank for 4.5 hours. Thanks for the offer though!

One of our tasks is to get little pictures printed of each fish and its type, similar to how aquatic art does. All staff came back yesterday and there were a lot of questions about what the types of fish were. It’ll be even more common when the kids come back. Doug gave us some unusual fish!

You could fillet him/her. That one really hurt me to see it go. :(

I am sure that you can handle the names, but the Galapagos Sawtail and the Bahianus are the ones that most people do not recognize. Sawtail was the size of a quarter when I got it.
