Leaving fish for 2 weeks

[sarimus]

Hi all.
What can you do when you want to go away for two weeks and no one too look after your fish.

1. cross your fingers....
2. auto fish feeder
3. find a local fish store or a friend to watch .....i mean train someone fast

leaving a reef for two weeks will probably be a total disaster unless you have all the fancy automated gear and backups to take that vacation but even then,,,,poof

I have a full Neptune system and I would be fairly reluctant to leave it for 2 weeks. Something seems to go wrong every time I go away. Usually a sensor fails or get some strange number. Maybe in looking at the app more than I normally do.

I would try get someone to check in on it. Ideally local fish shop.

I hire professional help, as I don't have anyone nearby I trust enough with SW tanks. I have 5 cameras, Hydros and my own backend for more advanced monitoring, but I still have them come by every other day to visually check everything is OK. Never trust, always verify.

I agree with everyone else that I would get someone to check on your tank for you.
