Fish is on a distinguished road

This past weekend I was away from the tank for 4days (the longest I've ever been able to do that). The system worked awesome but the water level did creep up a little bit (~4mm) so I have dialled down the pump to 15strokes/hour. The pump sits on top of a bucket which holds over 20days' worth of filtered topoff water. Now I do a 2 liter water change on my first day back to work, feed the tank with 'reef chili' each day I am working, and clean the glass on the last day of my work week. When I am on days off I don't worry about a thing. The ritual repeats again the next week. I was a little worried about the anemone crab going over a weekend without being fed but I have 3 pairs of stomatella snails in the tank and between them spawning and the pods on my chaeto, I figure the tank produces a fair amount of live food. So far so good!
