water will still have oxygen for a long time, just don't let it sit stagnant for too long.

you can get a emergency Azoo battery operated pump on Amazon for emergencies (about $10) ... although I'm on a ditch the air pump rampage...

every few hours pour the water back in forth into another bucket. the waterfall effect will give way more oxygen into the water, it just wont circulate as much.
if you have a small submersible perhaps put it in the bucket to go on 15 mins every hour

if you know anyone with asthema you could maybe borrow their nebulizer, or if you know a fisherman they may have an extra portable pump

I replaced air stones in my rezes with 160 gph pump spraying onto ornamental/river rock 24/7. Nutes are constantly circulating + oxygenating + benefts of cascading over rock to create chi
