In an aquarium with no flow, fish and corals begin to die in as little as 4 to 10 hours. The VorTech Battery Backup is reef tank insurance in an aluminum housing.  By adding the VorTech Battery Backup, your tank is insulated from power interruptions, helping protect your valuable investment and your tank inhabitants.

One EcoTech Marine Battery Backup will power:

• one MP10wES or MP10ES for up to 72 hours
• one MP40wES for up to 36 hours
• one MP60wES for up to 20 hours

*Hours are estimated and will vary depending on battery life, pump mode and other factors.
