Buy small feeder block for each tank and have a nive vacation. No need in over reacting and making a big deal out of nothing. Its 10 days, people on here starve there fish for weeks trying to force them to eat non-live foods.

Wow man...sorry to hear...

By the way, I never use dechlorinator. Except for saltwater waterchanges and 100% waterchanges.

You were probably overreacting to the cloudiness though!

Good luck getting the tank back on track...I'm going to Singapore for the summer holidays and I'm already nervous about my systems...

you can leave them. no need to feed at all really. they'll be fine.

 

[dbcb314]

fish can easily go 10days without food...

Those feeder blocks always screw up my tanks. I hate them with a burning passion.

i'd say allowing neighbors to do water changes is safer than feeding. nothing like returning to dead fish and a 1inch layer of food on the bottom of the tank.

 

[cichlaguapote]

would chlorine from rinsing the gravel hurt? no
would chlorine from a water change that you haven't done yet hurt? still no

Yeah you would have been fine.
