I'm heading out for 4 weeks, and I've made arrangements for my pets while I'm away. My family's going up north for the Fourth of July week, so my grandma's kindly agreed to help out with Bleu. She'll be feeding him every other day since our houses are only 20 minutes apart - she'll also collect our eggs.

For my Oklahoma trip, my mom's taking care of water changes, and my dad's handling feedings. I've set up an automatic timer for the tank, which makes me feel a lot better about leaving. My mom has experience with fish, so I just need to give her a quick refresher on water changes. I'll be leaving on July 8th and getting back around July 28th.

I'm feeling more at ease about leaving now that I have everything sorted out. One thing I'm still a bit concerned about is whether Bleu will be okay with just three pebbles every other day for that one week.

I think Bleu should be fine, fish can survive for a week without food, so three pebbles every other day seems like it'll be okay. What's his usual feeding schedule, though, and how much do you normally give him?
