Battery Backup – Optional Extra

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 aluminium 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.

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