Yesterday there was a problem with our electricity it went off from 12 midnight till 6 in the morning. I want to know if it will effect on my fish? Will i neeed to do a water change? Or i keep it. It will be fine. Will it hurt my fish?
 
you should be ok since it was only 6 hours and as long as the temp is ok all will be fine
 
that shouldn't be long enough to affect your bacteria, just temp may be an issue.
i think you should be OK :)
 
You should be fine. If you're a little unsure then check your water stats for peace of mind. ;)
 
Why do people always get power cut. Hmmmm.
 
HHEheh it always go out. Our country have many problems. 10x. So need no to be afraid.
 
Just keep an eye on your water temperature after the power comes back on. My son had a disaster in the last couple weeks with his SW tank. The power was off for 8 to 10 hours and actually came back on during the night. When they went to work the next morning, everything seemed fine but when they came home, the thermostat had apparently hung up and the water was near 100 degrees. There were already a couple dead fish and the others were in bad shape except for a clown fish which are apparently very hardy. In the end, the clown fish is the only one he didn't lose.
