RD}I've been scanning some of the messages about UPS's, and I'd like some
help,
}because I am thinking of getting one. I noticed that some people were
saying
}that a computer UPS could not handle the strain of a fish tank. This
confuse
}me. I would have thought that my computer would draw siginificantly more
}power than a heater and an air pump. Also, I noticed that APC (the maker
of
}my computer UPS) was advertising in AQUARIUM FISH magazine. Does anyone
have
}any experience with this brand on their fish tank?
I'm interested in hearing more about this.... right off hand, I can't
think of any reason it wouldn't work. However, many of the computer
UPS's are designed to only give 5-15 minutes of backup power... just
enough to shut the system down.
