Re: [Killietalk] Vacation Time

["George & Melanie Caruso" <caraway1 at centurytel_net>]

Peter,
I go on vacation a couple of times every year for a week. I leave the lights 
off in my fish room when I go. No one ever feeds or goes in the room while I 
am gone. I have never lost any fish doing this. The fish are always in good 
shape and ready to eat when I return. This goes for my fry as well.
George
