Hello Everyone,
I, like most of you I assume, leave on vacation sometimes and usually will ask a friend to watch my tank(s) for me. For example, right now I am out of town for 10 days and my neighbor/friend is watching my tank. The purpose for this, is that while I may have been strapped financially in the past, it would be nice to have a reference or a standard on which to pay friends in the future.
If you've ever asked someone to do this, how much did you pay/compensate them for their help? Perhaps provide some basic info to put it in perspective for other reefers. I'll make a immediate post under this with a couple of my past experiences.
Tank Size:
Vacation Length:
How often did you ask they feed the tank:
Water Changes (Y/N):
Skimmer Cleaning (Y/N):
Did any emergencies happen?:
Did anything significant die:
Relation to Tank Sitter (Friend, BestFriend, Family, Neighbor, Coworker, etc):
Total Compensation/Pay:
