[Kleko]

hey im wondering how long a clown can go without food im leaving for a trip soon and wondering if he will be ok gor about a week. I dont have anyone comign over for him, mainly becuase I dont want anything being messed up such as some simple mestakes ive made. But anyways would my clown be ok for the week?
should I feed him allot until I leave?
Thanks,
Mason

NO !!!!!!!!!!! not to be harsh but , would you be ok if not fed for a week . I would suggest find someone you trust to come feed just make sure you show them how much to feed and stress the fact NO OVERFEEDING !!

yes i think this is a large problem for allot of us reefers VACATHION trying to find somebody reliable to take care of our expensive investments. but dont over feed him have somebody come over and keep the normal feeding cycle or there will be no more clown lol
