Lucky - or not - this is what happened to me:
I was in up state New York in 98 when the ice storm hit. We were without power for 3 days with temperatures around 0 farenheit. I did nothing for my 90 gal as I was more concerned with keeping the family warm. The night before the power came back on, the indoor thermometer read: 40 degrees. I shined a flashlight into the tank: everything was lying on the bottom not moving. Electricity came back on around midnight. When I got home from work I saw all my fish were at least moving around! In the end, they all made it, and even more surprizingly, none developed ich or any other problem. I renamed my 2 yellow tangs: Rocky I and Rocky II. I had no corals or even live rock. I have no idea why they survived, but I was certainly happy.
Having said all this, I must add: hoping is not a plan of action.
