Almost every shop in town also offers maintenance services..... Shop around for prices though cuz they fluctuate 30 dollars or more between them..... Or talk to me when you come in tomorrow cuz I don't think anyone is lower....

I've gone 2 weeks. Filled my ato 2 weeks worth of water, dumped a bit of calcium into it. Asked the laziest person in the house to watch the tank(idea was he'll only do something to the tank if something looks wrong and won't do any extra work other than what I told him). The glass turned brown which was an easy cleanup, but other than that everything lived.

I guess it depends on how long you're going. I've gone a week, no attention to the tank. Two weeks and I had a friend stop in to change the top off jugs,and feed a bit. When I went for 6 weeks, I had sold my tank before going. Big range
 For my next trip of a week, I'm fine leaving as I have ATO plumbed in and everything else is on a controller. I can check from the beach if I want to, but I'll probably be preoccupied.

Going on vacation sucks, it is nerve racking for sure!
 I use an autofeeder. I fill a larger rubbermaid tote with enough RO for the duration of the leave. I make sure all of my equipment has been cleaned. I place a powerhead on battery backup. Murphy told me that if something is going to fail it is going to fail while you're on vacation. I have a family member or a friend pop in once every other day or so to check and make sure there is still water in the tank and not on the floor.
