Trusted holiday fish food blocks

[sarahtaylor]

Hiya,
I'm due to go on holiday soon and haven't got anyone to feed the tropical tank, any suggestions on trusted food blocks for them whilst I'm away ? Thankyou

How long are you going for?

The problem with food blocks is they can end up causing huge ammonia spikes.

There are auto-feeders, where you place a set amount of food in for each day, and they drop each bit accordingly, but either they can jam and not drop anything at all, or worse, dump the lot in at once, and you're back to ammonia.

What's in the tank? Species and decoration?

Second on the food block being a terrible idea. Worst case when I can find a sitter, I have the Eheim automatic feeder. It does the job
