Power Cut 0.0

[Leedsboi86]

Hey everyone

Had a powercut around 3am this morning and at 12:00am it came back on now the tank only has 2 kribs in which seems to be fine
and it's not warming back up but should the filter be ok? it was never taken out of the water.

Filter should be OK but you may experience a bacterial bloom as some will have died off. Just keep a close eye on water quality.

Will do 10% water changes daily then

Thanks

Don't feed today and keep the feeding down for the next week, and monitor the ammonia and nitrite levels. If they start to go up then do 30-50% water changes to bring them back down. Increasing the surface turbulence can help the bacteria recover quicker.
