going away for the weekend

[ilovemydragongoby]

so i'm going camping today, leaving when my bf gets off work. i know fish can go a few days without eating but i have fry in the tank that i do want to survive and i feed them more often but smaller amounts. should i get one of those weekend end feeder tablets? or should i just get some one to come over and feed them once a day or something?

I would find someone to do it, but put the EXACT amount of food in different baggies, (crushed up for the fry), and label them for each day, and what time of day. Tell them to feed NO MORE than what is in the bag. I did the same thing for my husband when I went out of town, and I also wrote directions and taped them to the tank.

that shouldnt be to hard since i feed the rest of the fish frozen brine shrimp and blood worms and these tetra flakes (you give 1 flake for one inch of fish) the only time i use actually flake is for the guppy fry.
thanks darby!
