Question on Fish Care while away on Vacation.... Still somewhat new to S.W.

[Tberg]

Does anyone have suggestions on how to get quality fish care during vacations? I've had neighborhood kids or neighbors in the past but they are not as knowledgeable or reliable as I would prefer.

My Spotfin butterflys (FOLR, 55 gal) are used to three meals a day. I think that would be next to impossible for a neighbor & I am guessing really expensive for a "Pet Sitting" service provider to do. Should I just go w/ 2 meals (blackworms) a day & stick w/ the neighborhood kids or neighbors? Let me know if you have any suggestions. Tx!

You'll get a better viewing if you post up in the reef talk forum.Might even get a friendly neighborhood reefer to help.Also can get an auto feeder,they are cheap and most work well.

I have used an autofeeder in the past. I set the autofeeder up a few weeks beforehand to make sure it worked.
