I'm afraid that I don't quite get boarding fish... If you need to do it, just visit the LFS or local Aquarium weekly. They feed them and take care of them with no expense to you.
Fish boarding.
- Thread starter Eupterus
- Start date
I really doubt you can board fish at a LFS for free.I'm guessing boarding your fish at a shop will be quite expensive as they'd probably take care of them too. Unless maybe you worked there or were really good friends with the person running the LFS.
Huh?..I don't get it, I already mentioned the reasons I know of why people decide to board their fish. I thought I explained it clearly.
To each their own I suppose, but in my case I would just get rid of the tank (or not call it my own).
It might be ok if it was in like a nice storage shed or something. I don't really get it myself but i guess if you just don't have the room but do have the passion what else are you suppose to do.
I don't understand the question.
The post a few above regarding the LFS boarding your fish was a joke. He was saying that rather than buying fish, equipment, and then hosting them offsite so that someone else can take care of them you could just visit the fish store and pretend that their all yours with little to no cost involved at all.
Are you looking to board your fish Eupterus? Do you know someone looking to? Noone understands why this thread was created if not, and frankly I don't know why you'd drain your tank down the point where it could be moved, and relocate your fish temporarily for a vacation unless it was going to be prolonged. I'm having my best man (also an AC member) babysit my tank for the week that I'm gone for my honeymoon. Much simpler solution than "boarding" your tank like it was a horse.
Hell just call around and I'm sure you'll find a company that offers tank maintenance. I know we have a few in my reasonably sized city of about 300,000 people and have them take care of it for the week.
