I usually get my old man to stop in and check on the tank... but without fail there is always a power outage or something... i always come home to some sort of casualties... I also alert my LFS that I am going away and to expecrt the phone call from my father... I came come to realize loss is just part of any vacation... I have recently added an Apex controller... so at least I'll know what to expect when I get home LOL... oh and I make sure I bring home a nice bottle of scotch so my Dad won't refuse to take care of the tank next time

My tanks is a 150 Gal cube with a sump, 5 gal Tunze water top off (lasts about 5 days). PH controller, dual heaters.
