As for keeping the tank warm, do you have a fireplace to keep the tanks by? Im also pretty sure battery powered space heaters exist. Also, depending on how long power would be out for, you could try purchasing a whole bunch of those chemical heat packs. Secure them to the side of the tank and wrap the tank with those thermal safety space blankets that you would keep in the back of your car if you were taking a trip out in the boonies of alaska. That might work if you replace the packs as they cool. I think they can last close to 20 hours.

Wonderful idea on the thermal safety space blankets. I'll look into it. I used just normal towels for a day or so and they didn't work because they did not radiate any heat. Thank you for the good idea!

Where in NY are you? I am on Long Island. I had to wait 2 1/2 hrs for gas. I to had to move my frogs from one location to another. This hurricane really hit us hard.

I am on long island too. Suffolk county to be more detailed. I waited 1 1/2 hours in the early morning hours when everyone was suppose to be either asleep or getting ready around 7am. $40 cash only like i was making a drug deal or something. Was the longest I ever waited for gas. ;p

Where did you relocate your frogs? Also how did you keep them warm in the meantime until you found a place that could take care of them?

I hope you and your family are safe and warm from the aftermath. I just got power yesterday so I hope you just got power too. Feels a little surreal not having to warm myself up with several layers and jackets and taking a hot shower not out of a heating pot. lol

You can buy some or those therma Pads used for aching sore muscles and stick them to the sides of the tank. Heatheranne keeps them on hand just incase. Its a great idea and I plan to stock up on hand warmers, heat packs, and Therma Pads just for that reason. We have a fireplace to help as well.
