OK, I have a well established tank, and except for the darn black hair algae, all is well. Last night at 2:00 am the power goes out, and this morning I come down to feed the fish, and find the Penguin is not moving. I did not touch the wheel, but carried the whole thing to the sink and cleaned the slime off the areas around the magnets. Wa La. She fires right up again. I have to go to work, so end of story, or maybe start of story? I don't know how long the bacteria colonies would last, but I assume some would have survived in the filter pad, and if they did die on the wheel, wouldn't they re-stablish pretty quickly?
Should I be concerned/do anything?
Thanks for any of your thoughts!
