Cindy Allen Wolff Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Hi. Looking for some advice on how to handle maintenance of our salt water tank while on vacation. Are there reliable services that could come in and feed the fish every couple days? We will have a auto top off prior to our next vacation so just need someone who would be able to feed the tank including some hand fed occupants. Appreciate any advice :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robb in Austin Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Misti/SeaClearly Maintenance. I think Timfish does that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austx Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 http://www.austinreefclub.com/topic/6159-recommendations-for-tank-service Found a previous thread with more info on Robb's post. Was interested myself just to have a go to number if it was ever needed. Thanks for helping me stop procrastinating on that thought! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jestep Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 How long are you gone for? WIth a good ATO, tanks often need much less attention that people think, at least as far as feeding goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WIth a good ATO, tanks often need much less attention that people think, at least as far as feeding goes. Probably only 8-9 days....we're feeding the tank every other day right now....

AquaJohn Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 my guess is unless the tank is over stocked for its size or you have special needs fish 9 days would probly be fine but its getting close to the end of the safe point. mabey get an auto feeder ? I have never used one so cant comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
