stay in my pond without the pump working? We had a power surge today

that
must have burnt out my pump. Will the fish be ok for lets say 6 hours

until
my husband gets home tonight?


The amount of down time you can live through will depend on many factors
including stocking levels, water quality before the pump went down, etc.

I'd
not feed them today, if you do normally feed, and if you can, getting the
water aerating with a simple air stone wouldn't hurt.
