I Left The Fishes Home Alone For 2 Weeks

[bitteraspects]

if they were completely healthy before you left, they would be just fine. fish go for weeks without food in the wild at times.

also, i would highly suggest against using those holiday feeders, as they have a tendency to really mess with your water parameters. especially if youre going to be gone for 2 weeks. thats 2 weeks of constantly adding an ammonia/nitrate source with no means of WC. its better to just not feed them at all IMO

m8 y did you not give me your opinion before I went away? dreading what I might come home to now, fingers crossed theyre fine

sorry, i wasnt on here much in the past week.
