I've got a battery air pump. I was thinking of putting tin foil on the glass.

Never had to deal with the power out this long before, and especially this time of year...

Aiiyeee, 8 hours. That's a little too dicey if you ask me.

What of renting a generator from a tool rental place?

Blankets and 10 dollars worth of heat packs from Walmart. Tape them to the glass and completely cover your tank with blankets. A small ups or battery operated air stone or small pump for surface agitation will work for an 8 hr period

We are in Scenic Acres, they have signs up.

Get a generator. They are nice to have and if you look around you can get a small one reasonably cheap . If you can't afford one go rent one seeing as you know when the power outage will be... I wouldn't take a chance with a 8 hour outage.
