Hello, does anyone ha e any recommendations for a battery backup system. I’m thinking something big enough to run my fish room airpump for awhile.
What is your plan for storing your solar energy?I don’t have any first hand recommendations. But I’m in the process of figuring out a solid solar powered (wired through my wall) to power my air pump. So if my main power fails. I’ll always have the air going.
I’m still working on that. Luckily in Texas we get a decent sun hour amount year round.What is your plan for storing your solar energy?

This depends more on how much saturation you had before the power outage, but more importantly the stocking levels in the tank when the power outage happens. If you have large fish that are moderately stocked your oxygen levels will rapidly deplete.jan...
A battery back up system sounds pricey. You don't really need one. If you're concerned about a power outage, your tank, depending on how large it is, can go many hours, if not a couple of days without surface movement. If you're good about changing most of the water in your tanks every few days, then this will maintain good oxygen levels in the water for several days.
