Default Power-Outage Contingency

I was just wondering: If the power does go out, wont the Rock continue the
natural filtering for a while?
In other words wouldnt a Live-Rock tank and its inhabitants hold up a bit
longer than an electric filtered tank if faced with a power outage?
If the temperature remained fairly constant, how many days (hours) could a
Live-Rock tank go before conditions and inhabitants started to crash?
