So simple, thanks. Now I just need a 45,000 watt generator to make
every single thing work at one time.


Right. What I would do is to buy something large enough to handle the central
air and one or two additional circuits. Put in an automatic switching box to
those circuits and make sure one of the circuits is the aquarium. The other
probably should be the fridge.

I could do my house that way with a 10 kilowatt unit. Got something to cool the
tank that pulls less power? You can get by with a smaller generator.

If a tank is out of ammunition, what you have is a sixty ton portable
radio.
