power cut :-(

[Tiesto643]

I have a power cut. How long would it be until no filter, heater etc starts to affect the fish?

65 litre tank, 2 Tetras, 2 cichlids.

Thanks!

This all depends on what is the temp outside/house, if its warm then you should be ok and just take cups of the tank water and pour it through the filter to keep the media wet and some surface agitated, for a day or two after that you will need to do PwC to keep the water fresh with low ammonia

Stir the water occasionally and wrap the tank in a blanket. Put the filter media in the tank if the power will be out long.
