:WHOA:wow:confused: why does it matter how she wears her hat???? If thats the way she chooses to wear it then let it be, if you don't like it then no need to comment. I don't wear hats, and told the person exactly how to feed everyone, and she still couldn't do it right.
 
Sorry to hear that!
 
i left my dad to feed my oscar and rtc in the 180....about a 5x5 inch square of floating pellets had formed in the corner lol...ppl over feed so i usually tell them exact amount or just feed them every other day!

that had to have been a joke . . . he just neglected to put a :D at the end of it . . .
 
man that sux. i pre measure out daily amounts of food and put them in ziplox so they don't over feed...
 
That sucks, sorry that happened.

When I leave I put food in baggies for each day for each tank. Then all the person has to do is put it in the tank. I was in the hospital once and I had my mom go to my house, bring the fish food to the hospital with baggies and put the amount in there. lol. She thought I was nuts but I clean her tank and I keep telling her she's overfeeding. I keep telling her to cut back on the amount.
 
the fish would have been fine not even being fed for 7 days, fish are cold blooded so they can go a while without eating. would have been better than them getting over fed.
 
If you have to do it again, get those weekly pill planners from the pharmacy and fill them with the amount of food to be added each day. I've used that method with my mom and all she had to do was pop the top of that day and dump in.

Don't just show how much to feed and rely on that, especially to someone outside the hobby since they will keep feeding just to watch the fish eat. Last summer I couldn't figure out why my tanks kept getting algae blooms until I found out my brother had been dumping 4-5x what I feed daily into my tank several times a day just to watch the fish. Thankfully my tank was heavily overfiltered and heavily planted so I didn't have too many fish deaths.
