Jack arse you dont over feed befor you go... The fish will be fine a week without food. Its the top off water !!!! Have a Friend come and look at it once or twice while your away!

10 days is a pretty long time without food...
Lights should be on a timer anyway. Definitely have somebody stop over...

have someone stop over once or twice while your gone to feed. if your not feeding frozen you can buy an automatic feeder but the best is have some one feed ("FROM A PRE MEASURED PACKET") about twice while your gone DO NOT OVER FEED many people have killed their fish that way.

was away a toal of 9 days ...NO LIGHTS....NO FEEDING....and my tank has never looked this GOOD !!!!!

All my hair algae is GONE...all fish were still alive and kicking...my tang that had red velvet is all cleared up !!!

I am sure that i will do something to F*** this all up but this is the best my tank has looked in months....
