Is there anybody can tell me what to do if i wana go for holiday? what should i do for my stingray? can it live without food for four days? Or i put some live small fish for them? If i put in live fish, i'll worry about ammonia/NO2 will increase.
Holiday
- Thread starter Blixc
- Start date
If its healthy and not a pup, four days without food should not be a problem. Just feed heavy and do a water change before your departure....
There should be no problem if you rays are healthy. By the way , make sure you change your water and clean your filtration system well before you go for holiday.
Special remind - get an electric keeper (use with computer) i don't know how to call LOL. In case there are no electric while you go for holiday. I used to have a friend who lost all his rays while he is out of country with an electrical problem in his area for few hours. Prepare well for everything and you may enjoy your trip with no problem.

what about 2 weeks, what do you guys recommend doing?
they are not pups but not adults and are healthy (female = 13months, male about 9months). so i just feed until they are full before i go and water change?
you think two weeks is too long?
cheers for the feedback

2 weeks is way too long. Your best options are to have someone who knows what they are doing, come over ,feed and do water changes while you are gone. If you know someone local who can house them for you , that would be great too.
Depends how big your tank is compared to your bioload. I massively overkill my filtration on my tanks so 2 weeks for me is definitely fine. As for the feeding, 2 weeks fast should be no problem. I've had to leave the country for a week or two a couple times in the past even with pups a couple weeks old and they were perfectly fine when I got back. As long as your rays are healthy and well fed before hand, they should be perfectly fine going for 2 weeks.skylineiz;3680405; said:
