I have a marine aquarium and had a very lucky escape last night after a power cut.Fortunately I managed to save all the fish and corals but am now worried that a longer power cut will wipe out the lot.
As I’m no electrician and don’t understand the technical data given after having typed ‘Battery back-up’ into Google,I need some help please.
I’m looking for a simple plug-in system that will support the essentials,(heater,filter box & maybe one powerhead)for as long as possible I guess…something that re-charges itself once power is restored.I need the essentials to plug into it using standard UK plugs.
Is such a thing available or have I just come up with an idea for the ‘Dragon’s Den’ with no brains to make it happen????
