whats the longest you've left your fish alone?

I was away for 13 days during the same storm, and there was no electricity, but I had lost a few fish including a breeding pair of salvini and some other inexpensive fish.

yeah, forgot to mention battery powered airstones, no power. lol

I have gone almost a month. 3 days is nothing.

Quick story: I used to live with my ex-girlfriend and when I moved out I left a tank of Daffodil Brichardi. After 4 months her brother called begging me to take the fish saying my ex never fed or cared for the fish from the day I left.

All the fish survived without any care and having to live with a beast of an ex-girlfriend.

Three days are nothing.
Good luck.

my strategy for leaving my tank for awhile is to get a bunch of ghost shrimp. When my fish are well fed they ignore them and the shrimp hide pretty well. ive noticed that if i lessen their feedings say during some tank maintenance, ghost shrimp start disappearing. So before I leave for a long weekend I do a good cleaning, top off the water and dump in a bunch of ghost shrimp. Typically after 3 days they have all been hunted down and eaten.
