Hello guys, how is it going? Injusbrecently started my fizer slatwater tank and have had a freshwater tank for 1 year. So I was wondering how I should proceed with a saltwater tank when traveling, with my goldfish I would just add a vacation feeder, but I'd imagine that with a saltwater tank this should be a lot more difficult. So if you guys have any tips, it would very helpful.

So right now my saltwater tank is cycling, so I don't think it should be that much os big deal traveling. But just want to make sure and know for the future. I'll be spending 2 weeks away from home. And I can have my doorman come and feed my fish once in a while.

Thanks a lot guys.

In addition to regular feeding, you will need to arrange some way to add top off water to the tank to make up for evaporation. Many people have auto top off systems added to their tank but depending on the size of the container it may not be large enough to last two weeks.
