Can fish survive 5 days without food? I am going on vacation but no one will be feeding my fish.

yes..id feed them before you leave with a nice water change after, and they will be fine

Okay. I was worried that my fish would starve to death. I wouldn't want to say goodbye to my fish.

i'd say even up to a week is safe to feed your fish without food. longer than that might be pushing it some, but a week is fine i'm on spring break right now and my little guys are all by themselves, but i conditioned them with extra food for a couple weeks prior and did large water changes before i left.

Well, I'm glad to hear that. Like I mentioned before, I am worried when it comes to my fishy friends.
