Explain bad and the ugly - coil denitrators & power outages.

[miatawnt2b]

OK, So say I am running a coil denitrator and the power goes out for 6 hours. What happens when the pump comes back on? Does teh resulting dead gunk in teh denitrator wipe the tank?

I am debating one of these, and I am trying to figure out a fail-safe if the power quits. I had actually thought about just gravity feeding into my sump so that the denitrator wouldn't stop, but I'm not sure if that is such a good idea being... well... the tank is siphoning into the sump during power outage. I see bad things here. so there is my second question... Those of you running coil denitrators, what's your fail safe?

Thanks,

Tagging along, my fail safe is praying.

i'm thinking running it with a maxi-jet and a cheap UPS may be a good option.
