Return pump only I would say, If it is a low enough wattage PH try that too but the lights will drain that battery quickly.

You could try to get one for the tank itself and do what fritz zuggests, get a marine deep cycle battery, wire that in to the ups using 12 guage wire and you should be able to run a few things for an extended period of time.
