vacation

So I'm going on vacation for a week next month and need ideas for vacation feeders, especially for my 120. In the past I've used the vacation feeder food pyramids. They seemed to have worked and I came home with all my fish alive and well. I saw the Eheim Everyday Programmable Fish...

They are now! :) last time we went out of town for a week our pet sitter grossly overfed the only fish we had at the time (a betta) given the amount of tanks i now have with various sized fish, these pill containers will put my mind at ease. It cant get much easier for an inexperienced...

I just returned from a 7 day trip and have 2 more similar trips scheduled in August. Weather reports for my home indicated severe thunderstorms every afternoon which often results in power outages. I live n a rural area and as a result we are the last to have power restored - it many cases it...

Like the title says, been on vacation in Tennessee since last Friday and having a fantastic time, and wouldn'tyou know it Tennessee has an aquarium or two...my family and I have visited the Ripleys aquarium in Gatlinberg and also did the aquarium at the Memphis zoo (both were fantastic) Will...

Well, the family and I went on a little vacation to find Coasters and visit family in MI. A buddy of mine takes care of my fish when I am gone. Obviously the fish don't get the same amount of attention when I am gone, but stay fed. So I come home to three Yellow Labs holding (still), they were...

Next month I will be gone for a solid 31 days on vacation. I will have my usual cat/dog sitter taking care of my fish. I currently have 2 tanks: 75 Tanganyikan, 29 juvie growout/community. Between now and my leaving I will also have 4 sets of fry (0-5weeks old...good timing:rolleyes:) in...

We'll be out of town for a month and are wondering what to do in terms of fish sitting. We have about 2 weeks covered with our usual sitter, but that leaves almost 2 weeks with no one yet. I'm just wondering if anyone knew of a reliable sitter in Arlington, VA who could handle roughly weekly...

I found this Betta stuck in a intake tube of a display tank at the shop.One of my coworkers broke the original wihile cleaning it. They found a replacement part that fit in our used parts bin, the only problem was it was a intake for a saltwater filter with a protein skimmer(duh!!) so that...

I NEVER go on vacation. Decided I had to visit the family in California (parents aren't getting any younger) and was literally in the air only a few hours when the power went out in my house. Two of my lovely neighbors immediately sprang into action knowing how neurotic I am about my fish. They...

Any ideas? My daughter (9 yrs old) mentioned beach, and we go to Florida about once per year 'cause I have a place in Kissimmee, but I am thinking more of a different place for a family vacation-and Florida is AWFUL in the summer anyway-at least in those parks it is. EXTREME HEAT AND HUMIDITY...

Hi all. I've been meaning to post these, but it's often late by the time I get on the computer. These are from my vacation, back in May. I went to a fishfarm in Miami, did some collecting, and, of course, stopped at Versaille for lunch. See you Saturday, everybody.
