I am leaving my college dorm tomorrow night till next friday.. One week.. What should I do about my tank? I've been reading online that they should be okay, they're 5 tiger Barbs and a Bolivian Ram Cichlid.. Do you think that should be okay? Or of I got someone to feed them once while I'm gone? They'll have to break in, but I'm sure they can for one day.. lol

You should be fine. Feed the fish and do a 50% pwc the day, or the day before you leave. The fish are fine without food for a week. I've left my old tank for 9 days without food or water changes and it was all good
