im going on vacation and have no one to feed my fish, any feeback on the feeding blocks? i have loaches, rams, stiphodons, tetras, and alot of shrimps. its only going to be for 2 days, maybe three, so will they last, and feed the variety of fish in the tank. I was also thinking of adding seom cucumber slices, the shrimp seem to like them, but Im wondering if they will be alright for the three days. any feedback will help, thanks.

go very light on the food

healthy fish can go a long time without eating

leave air conditioning ON while you are away

we do have in stock
Penn Plax feeding blocks of various sizes

should be fine

we sell tons of them

no one has had any problems

sounds good, I'll be in this weekend for some blocks. How long do you normally keep veggies in the tank for, before they become a hazard to the fish? just curious, I don't normally keep them in for more than 24 hours.

that's right

if they don't eat them pretty soon
take them out

it's like over feeding any kind of food,
it will ruin the water if it doesn't get eaten quickly
it rots and will make amonia
