+1 simplest and best guarantee that your tank will be guarded against any misunderstandings or crazy spikes in nutrients. The last time I went away for two weeks I just picked up several packages of the smallest size of ziploc brand tipper ware containers and pre-portioned out every single day's worth of food. Feeding my fish for my roommates was as simple as grabbing a container from the freezer, thawing the contents, and feeding.
