I'll be away from my tank for a week while on spring break and I'm worried about my two little dwarf puffers.
The other 3 rasboras should be fine because they'll eat anything and I'll put one of those 7 day feeder things in there. If you think that's a good idea? Or do they mess up your chemicals, etc?
But the puffers don't seem to eat anything but the frozen bloodworms I give them (thawed first, of course ). And even then they like to have me feed them by hand (I use a toothbrush to place it right in front of them. Yes, they are spoiled ).
So what should I do? Will they be ok for 9 full days without me??? If not, what should i do?
And while we're on the subject of feeding, how often should I feed the puffers? They usually eat about one worm at a time, but the rest of the time they act like they're still hungry and swim around pecking at the gravel as if looking for food?
All your help is much appreciated. I leave on thursday, so it'd be best to know something by then, thanks!
