Hey guys I need your help.
I have to up grade my electrical panel and need a good/fair electrician?
Any recommendations?

Next question, I will have to disconnect the power for one full day. How long can the fish/corals live with no power going to the tank?

Thanks for your help.

DavidM is a electrician.. There is also a few others on the board.. As for the fish.. Get a marine battery/inverter and your ready to go..

You could also ask a neighbor to plug in their wall for the day.
Corals and fish ship in tiny little bags for 24 hours, but then they have oxygen in the bag, not atmospheric air, and they end up super stressed.

You'd probably be okay a few hours, and if you can't get electricity after that, you can oxygenate the water in the tank by scooping some out with a pitcher, and pour it back into the tank from 8-18", do that a couple times every few minutes.
