Away for the weekend. Feeding?

Hi all

Just wondering if I am taking chances here. I am going away this weekend and I haven't organised anyone to feed my fish.
I have two tanks:
Main Tank is a 65L with 1 Betta, 3 Guppies and 10 Neon Tetra and a couple shrimp hiding in the plants. I have a few plants in the tank and I fed last night. I also dropped half a tomatoe in there.
Shrimp tank is a 16L with 1 female guppy and 1 male guppy fry (about half inch) plus 12 shrimp. It has a couple of stem plants and a bit of moss. I dropped a slice of cucumber in it this morning.

Am I going to get home to a dead fish or two? I will be away from this morning until about midday Sunday.

 

They should be fine with no feeding. I would take out the tomato and cucumber though as these will foul your water reducing the quality. Fish in the wild dont eat everyday. I have been away as long as a week without feeding and had no issues. I read somewhere that fish can go up to 2 weeks without food.

 

Thanks. They seem pretty fussy about the cucumber and tomato anyway so I'm giving that to the Parrot... a much more appreciative animal

P.S. The parrot has a home for the weekend. I'm not satan

 

Agree they will be fine but as has been said, remember to take the cucumber and tomato out.. that will foul the water

 

Have a lekker weekend - you will probably get back to a happier hungry fish ...

Later Ferdie
