I will be gone for 6 days
6 days without my tank
6 days without my fish
6 days of not knowing. ( shoulda got a controller)
6 days of letting my non believing wife control my tank

Little nervous only because my anthias. Had them about a month. They diet almost exclusively on mysis. Even though 2 days ago i saw 2 of them eat pellets.

Any thoughts?
What are your procedures when leaving your tank?
Is there was a frozen food feeder option?

I paid a pet sitter to take care of my seahorses. Worked out great, I think it was $20 a day. Worth it for peace of mind.

If you have a LFS nearby or that you know check with them. When I lived in a bit larger city my LFS would stop by and feed, fill up the ATO. That way I also knew that if there were any problems they could deal with them. They had my cell phone and also knew what to look for.
 
Like Alex said local members are great to have. I work out of town alot and my wife takes care of the tank but If anything starts going wrong with my tank I have talked with Alex and he said he would come by and check it out for me!
 
There are a bunch of us in the area. You can PM me, if you want my number, in case you or your wife think something is really going wrong. I got Smyrnareefer's and angrycubano's number on my fridge for my pet sitter to call in case of emergency.
 
auto fish feeder and my APEX are all I need. I have someone come over and check every so often. With the apex I have full control remotely and also know exactly whats going on. ;)
