Hey all,
I was wondering what you guys liked in automatic fish feeders. I have a 55 gal which is sparsely inhabited by 3 corys, a tiny bristlenose and 6 rummynose tetras. I am in college and I am leaving the area tomorrow until the 3rd of January (with trips back every so often maybe). When I left for Thanksgiving break- a week- I left my fish with the "The Daily Double II Automatic Fish Feeder" and plenty of flakes mixed with the different kinds of sinking pellets my corys and bristlenose need. I come back in a week and there are 2 dead rummy noses and 2 dead corys (which were getting over a case of fin rot).
Anyway, I was wondering what you guys do for feeding a community tank while gone. I would love to get someone to do it, but since this is a college town, nobody is sticking around over the break. Seeing as I leave tomorrow, quick advice is well appreciated! Thanks!
