Yes, I personally use a Current USA feeder which feeds pellets twice a day. You can set it to feed 1, 2 or three times per day. So far it has been very reliable. You may want to have it set up for a couple days so you can adjust the ammount it feeds your fish to the right ammount.

If you are going for only a week it won't do any harm not to feed, I know it sounds cruel
but your fish will come to no harm, plus they will be so happy to see you return.

ok well how old are your fry and are they in the main tank or in a net in the main tank?Either way your fry need to be fed and if you do you use an attomatic feeders the food still wouldnt get into the fry.Have you got a friend that could feed them for you?

ok well why dont you leave the amount of food for each day in little containers or something like that and then they cant really overfeed them.
