Thank you all for the tips! My tank is only a small 25g (keeping an eye out for a deal on a larger set up)
I have a pair of clowns and a pair of damsels (totally laughed at the thought of the clown hosting the damsel!)
I made sure everything was cleaned, running right. I did a water change and left several jugs of RODI water ready. I did explain to him how to top off (don't have auto top off), to check the skimmer, and how to feed. I didn't make up saltwater though :/ (the buckets, heater, power head are laid out if he needs it) I bought a new digital thermometer right before I left to make it easier for him to watch.
I don't know anyone with a reef tank :/ this was something I became obsessed with all on my own lol. Actually, it was a suggestion to help with calming my autistic son..... The tank is actually "his"
