Vacation

[dragonfish]

Need some advice. I'm going on vacation and will be gone for ten days. Which is safer, giving some one who knows nothing about fish a crash course in the individual requirements of each tank, or not feeding for that time?
Need some help here, what have you done?

Come on guys, I know some of you had to have taken a vacation at some point.

if it were me i would write down step by step instructions and what i did was bag individual portions for each day so the right amount was given. Depending on fish some could go for ten days but at the very least i would get someone to go in at least twice-three times if nothing else just to check the health of the fish and that equipment is working properly.

I've done the individual portion thing and the person I got to watch my fish still screwed it up. I lost some fish and I wasn't very happy about it. If you can find someone you at least somewhat knows what they're doing, go for it, otherwise I'd prolly just leave 'em.
