Hi Brownie,

I agree with both miles and JMHart - you can always cut back lighting and fert's for a couple of days with no harm done to most tanks. Once you get into High light, High Co2, and difficult plants it can become another matter. But still, a couple of days is not the end of the world.

Are you growing any high light plants? Any HC? (I've found HC can melt after a couple few days of no light ;)

As Miles said, If you are having any trouble with algae just turn the lights out for the time you are gone, you will come back to amazingly clear water.

Any large fish? anything that can't go for a couple of days without food?
