Hey guys

Hope you all doin good!!Anyway,I'm going away this month for christmas holidays for 2 weeks and I wanna know whats the best way to feed my fish, IF I can't find someone to do it for me?

I saw this excellent feeder from Hagen that I'm most willing to buy but I first wanna hear what you guys have to say?
 
if you've had your tank for awhile and your fish are stable i wouldn't bother feeding them for the two weeks you are gone. I would feed more than usual the a week or two before you leave.

Did you notice he has rays? That could spell bad news.

I would try to find someone to feed them.
 
i can't really say coz i dont know too much about rays. You could get an automatic feeder though. But if you do make sure you get one that has a fan that aerates the food if you have a canopy for your tank. I have a canopy for my tank and had a cheapo auto feeder. came back two weeks later to a container full of moldy food
 
What does your ray eat? I doubt you can put ray food inside an automatic feeder ( unless their carnivore sinking pellets )
 
their diets mostly consist out of shrimps and earthworms and I feed them cut fish 3-4 times a week.so this could be a problem...I did feed them pellets for 2 weeks when I got them but after some research I started feeding them shrimps then earthworms and only recently the cut fish
