How would you suggest feeding a 10 gallon tank full of about 50 small fry over a week break while I will be snowboarding in Colorado :headbang2. I was thinking about using those white blocks that dissolve?

Any advice?
 
Have you looked into auto feeders? What are you feeding your fry now? Maybe a neighbor or roomate might be able to feed.

If you go the neighbor or friend route, I would have them observe exactly how you feed 2 or 3 times, or use the Monday -Sunday pill containers and put the quantity you want fed. Use 3 to 5 containers depending how many times per day you want the fry fed.

Cubes will do.......Give them a protien boost before you leave.......Giving them a load of baby brine shrimp will be awsome......
 
Thanks for the replies. I am currently feeding HBH "baby bites" which is basically a powder so I dont know how well an auto feeder would work. I have feeders on my 30 and 55 g tanks that I will use during break but not sure about the fry food in them.
