    Did you happen to check the water parameters when you got back? I'd just like to know what they were out of curiosity.

    It's amazing they went that long without food/WCs. Definitely shows what great shape they're in.

    What kind of fish is that in the first and last pics I really like those?

    Thanks all, those are my Solid Red Snakes. Those are my future breeding project.

    None, the water dropped about an inch from the rim on each 55 gallon tank. I had them filled to the top before I left.

    Post #4, mind you, its best to know your water before adding any additional minerals. My tap water is similar to RO water.
