    Congrats on becoming a military family! Thank you all for your service, as it takes a whole family to support and make it work. I know because I am retiring from the USAF this coming March after 26 years.

    I’ve left my fish for 5 and 6 days with no feeding. They did fine. I think they could go a week with no issues but I have read some people leave them for 2 weeks. I would not go past a week. I have also used automatic feeders. They work pretty well.

    John and Lisa congratulations on your son graduation of Boot camp. As a Navy Veteran myself welcome to the military family. Not sure what his job is going to be but the Navy taught me a lot and seeing the world was amazing. Great job on raising a great kid. By the way I just got a 90 gal fish tank given to me and 2 blood parrots full grown I think with a clown loach. Such pretty fish they are and I just added 4 more cichlids to the tank. They look so small compared to the adults. Thank you for telling me about the cichlids in your videos they are very cute fish. Love the channel guys. Appreciate the videos.

    I’ve had family come in and help with feedings, checking for obvious issues, and tipping up the ATO with some pre-prepped water. We had a local fish maintenance place come once a week to do a water change, check parameters, and service the tank. Their number was also provided to family and prominently displayed by the tank with instructions to call them if anything went pear-shaped.

None of them are at the 1" mark yet, but they're getting close, and I'm worried they won't be able to go that long without a water change. Any thoughts/insights?
