Hey i have a plank auto feeder setup on the tank 150g with 44g sump.
I believe it was running for about 2 hours from 4 till 630. I wokeup to a hazy tank.
I jave sucked out 20 gallons of water (all i had mixed up) and a LOT of pellets/flake/freeze dried.
So will that be good enough or i am looking at a tank crash. Fish are still swimimg "normally" and excited about all this wounderfull food....

I have the skimmer, algea scrubber, and Refugium running.

I would check ammonia and nitrite levels when you get home, because leftover food in the tank can cause a spike of toxic ammonia and nitrites.
