I’m leaving from Monday until Saturday, and I won’t be able to do any true maintenance before leaving (water change, GFO, etc..)

Will my fish be OK? It’s a newer tank but things have been good. I’m concerned with the phosphates.

Tank 1
Alk. 9.5 (dialed in w/ afr)
Nitrates 29 (Xenia focus in tank)
Phosphates .75 (this is what scares me)

Tank 2
Alk 9.0 (dialed in w/ afr)
Nitrates 1.8 (no clue why they’re so low)
Phosphates .53 (this tank is taking 1/4 cup GFO every 2 weeks, 25g tank)

Will I be fine for a week ?

Do you have someone to feed the tank?
Do you have an auto top off??
