Hi all,
Amazing site, I've gotten this far due to lurking and BRS videos.
I have a 70g display Cadlights tank that has been up and running for 6 months. I am dosing 2 part at about 15mls per day to keep dkh between 8 and 9. Will this drop to a damaging level if I stop for a 1 week vacation just with a few lps and a small spa frag? I have an auto top off and feeder that will make it through.
Any input is appreciated!

I happen to know someone that wrote an article with some vacation advice. May be worth taking a look.

Thanks. Will look into it. I am just not sure what to expect, I do know plenty of cases of no dosing and using water changes only so I cant imagine one week would be too bad but looking for any advice.
 
Welcome from a fellow former lurker. You're going to enjoy the interaction. An autodoser couldn't hurt, but either wayI'm sure you'll worry about your system the whole time you're gone. Do you know anyone you can trust to check up on it?
