Grindals during vacation?

[captmicha]

I was wondering what everyone does if they have to go away for like a week. I've got two soilless cultures going that get feed daily. I'll probably be starting a soil culture tomorrow too. Does it just go a week without feeding? Do I put in a vacation fish food block? I'm hoping I don't have to ask a neighbor to feed worms for me. They already think I'm crazy enough.

What do you feed them?

I don't feed at all for up to 2 weeks. Unless, I have fry.....
I just left them for 8 days with no issues.

wait....do you mean feeding fish? or feeding your cultures? sorry....don't know anything about the cultures!

The grindal worm cultures. Looks like an interesting process, if tedious, but nets lots of live food for what seems to be little cost. I don't think my wife would go for it, though, since they'd have to be kept inside, I'm sure. It gets awful hot in the garage during the summer.

I'd put them in the coolest spot I could find, feed them, maybe put in a slow water drip so it doesn't dry out, and call it good. They'll be fine with a brief fast.
