My cousin has 4 big aquarium with different fishes. I always marvel at the design of his aquarium with the plants and small figurines. But the usual fixture that I see is the air pump which is a necessity to bring oxygen to the water for the fishes to breathe. My cousin was unaware of the risk until there came a time that power outages in our country would last for more than 20 hours in a day. That situation lasted for months before the government was able to source out energy suppliers.
When I visited my cousin all his aquarium were empty. The fishes were dead due to lack of oxygen. Now the question is what about the shop that sells aquarium fishes? They were able to recover because they had generators to power the air pumps in their aquarium. Nice one. But if the power outage occurs at night then some fish can still die before the generator is started.
