Hey guys,I plan on leaving for 5 or 6 days for the holidays, just wondering if you guys think thats to long for them not to eat. They are about 5" right now and really fat. They could stand to lose some weight. Thanks in advance. Rob
Yes I had the same exact problem with a neighbor. I came home to one of my tanks solid cloudy with bloodworm carcuses everywhere.Hello; A non fish keeper friend decided to feed my fish for me once while I was away. It was a disaster as he over feed and soured the tanks. Many non fish keepers do not have any idea about how much to feed. I have left fish unfed for a week or more many times without any problems.
If you have live plants, you can put the lights on a timer.
The biggest problem could be from a power outage if a tank is overstocked.
