I'm going on a 2-week vacation soon; I'm mainly concerned about my endler fry, my gobies, and my one handicapped long-fin danio.

I have someone who can feed my fish; I'm intending to put dried food in medisets. But help won't be available to feed my fry 2-3x a day, and I'm afraid they won't be patient enough to hand-feed my problem goby nor my problem danio. I think the rest of my gobies will be OK just having frozen food dropped in, but I'm still concerned. I almost wish I could board some of my fish.

Has anyone had experience going on vacation with high-needs fish at home? Any tips you've found that will make it easier for others to care for your fish? I really need advice.

    Yea I got a automatic feeder would go off every day could choose setting like if u wanted it to go off every 10 hours or soand could adjust how much I wanna feed them

  2. Is it possible for you to show the helper how you feed the fish in person at least once? so they understand what is needed. You can also try to write a detailed list with instructions or make a video where you show it. Automatic feeders can be great as well
