vacation feeding

Question
I wonder if you have any suggestions for feeding a very large
(12") algae eater while on vacation.  I regularly feed him 2
wafers per day but cant seem to find a vacation feeder for him.
The other ones do well with a gel type vacation feeder. Thanks

Answer
Bob,
I honestly do not know of any kind of feeder for the pleco. If it is a long vacation you might be able to get someone to come in and feed him. I know one of the pet stores here takes my Pleco when I will be gone more than a week. Maybe your pet store will do the same. Sorry I could not be of better help for you.
