Care needed when babies are 2 weeks old.

[Viking]

I just bought some eggs yesterday. Hopefully some will hatch.

I would like to go away for 24 hours in 2 weeks. Would I be likely to come home to a disaster? What you need to to set things at that point?

Just leave them a bunch of blackworms to eat. Cut them up appropriate sized and don't leave too many (i.e. more than they'll eat during that time), to foul the tank.

If you feed them right before you go and when you come back, 24 hours is not too long!! I've had to work a shift that long a couple times in my career!!

Most of them have hatched. I have the tank full of Daphnia right now.
