Holiday Feeders? What Is Best

Good Morning / Afternoon /Evening!

I am going for a 10 day holiday in June and I am wondering what food I should get for my tank consisting of:

• Betta
• 4 Amano Shrimp
• 8 Yellow Phantom Tetras
• 6 Glowlight Tetras

I have a Fish Pod Aquarium so it is quite hard to get an auto feeder in the tanks curved feeding door but I am worried it may not work.

I have asked family to come feed them but I have not had a response back yet so does anyone have any recommendations?

Thanks!

Most pet stores have vacation food blocks.

They are usually white and shaped like animals.

It’s a block of food that won’t dissolve that the fish can peck at. I’ve never used them before but my brother in law uses them.

Understandable. Just make sure to read the package first. If you have time to do a test run before your holiday I would see how it works out with you monitoring it first.

That's a great Idea! Thanks!

 

That's a great Idea! Thanks!

Of course!

 

Dont use a feeder block. If your going away for less then 2 weeks feeding isn't a worry. The only thing I would add is some live daphnia if you can get some. Usually you can find some in any local waterways.

 

If your tank’s been going for a while, there’s probably some stealthy little critters in there for your fish to find and destroy. I wouldn’t worry too much.
