I bought a battery backup from futureshop last year (no pun intended) and wasnt overly impressed with it, ended up taking it back. Im liking the idea of automotive batteries and wouldnt mind making a project of it one day.

Default it hurts i know

Really everyone should have a battery powered pump or something to circulate the water i didnt power went out and in 6 hours tank dropped 8 degrees co2 sky rocketed in no time and no movement nitrate buildup literally slaughtered everything i was away for the day and nearly cried upon return .... back to square one 25$ would have saved 400$ in the long run and saved me alot of work any newbies take it into consideration
