GF has a 105g that's fast becoming a reef tank. We're concerned about the potential for a power outage - they're very rare in her area, but with as much as she has invested...well, you get the idea.

We're wondering - would a UPS to power two Maxijet powerheads be sufficient to keep things alive? One is a MJ1200 and one is a MJ900, both have Hydor Flows on them, so they cover quite a bit of the tank.

Running the Mag 9.5 for the sump would be out of the question, we're looking for max run time and min requirements.

Thanks in advance!
