Best Automatic Fish Feeder

[Clownfishman]

I have been looking for one of these, since someone always isn't around to feed my fish when im away..

I found a really nice once at marine depot that feeds for up to 15 days... and you can actually add whatever you want in the little food spaces for each day...

What do you think? is this one good or can someone recommend something better..

Have no personal experience with that one but it looks good. Eheim makes a good one - with a fan to keep the flakes from clumping. Hydor is out with a new one, I've seen it but haven't tried it - not sure if it's available yet, but I think it might be more economical than the Eheim one. The Eheim one is a bit pricey, IMO.

I have that exact model, and it's sitting in a box on the shelf. I thought it would work well, but it ends up clumping the food if you leave it in too long, like for two or three days. Send me a pm and I'll mail mine to you, and you can try it.
I'd only make that offer to someone from Meridian. I lived a long time in Covington County, myself. Used to hunt for sharks teeth behind the Red Hot Truck Stop!

What about mixing in your meaty foods and shrimp with your flakes in those feeders... wonder if they work or if they mess up..

Do any of them actually work?
