Jassed, I have not ever tried it but if you use it solely for that purpose I could see this lasting for days. I use apc for my two aquariums (one in each) and have been pleased, it is much better/cheaper option then some of the aquarium specific options imo.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The runtime depends on how much power your 5V Mini Aquarium Air Pump uses and what UPS you're using. If you're using the APC BE600M1 and your pump draws around 3 watts (which is typical for small 5V pumps), the UPS could keep it running for 60–80 hours during a power outage. That estimate assumes the pump is the only device connected and the battery is fully charged. If your pump draws more power—like 5W or 10W—the runtime will be shorter. For example: - At 5W: around 50–65 hours - At 10W: around 25–35 hours Actual runtime may vary based on battery age and efficiency, but this gives you a good ballpark.

I suspect it draws around 3 watts of power so the runtime would be over an hour on the unit. If the wattage is higher the runtime will be lower.
