Automatic Fish Feeder for Aquarium - Auto Fish Food Dispenser for Turtle Tank with USB Cable, LCD Display, Timer, Fish Feeder for Vacation Weekend Holiday, with Feeder Spoon

works great. easy to use. holds enough food for my 8 fish in a 70 gallon tank.

I service high end aquariums for a living and have tried lots of off brand equipment, most of which is junk. This feeder is fantastically designed and easy to use. I was very impressed with the trap door that stays closed until the feed is dispersed. This should help prevent moisture build up as well as keeping the food from getting splashed from aggressive eaters. If it lasts a long time, I'll be switching from the brand name feeders and exclusively using this. The price of about $27 is less than my wholesale cost of a big brand named feeder.

Once I figured out how to set the timer correctly, the feeder worked quite well. Good design, battery seems to last, recharging is nice.BUT, before you and your fishies get to enjoy this nifty feeder, you need to know that the instructions (#5 specifically, as shown in the photo, are just wrong.)The feeding frequency dots are NOT for intervals, and zero dots does NOT mean it will feed your fish every day.Rather, the dots indicate how many compartments will be dispensed at the set time. One dot= one compartment will be dispensed at the set time. Two dots = two compartments will be dispensed. And so on.ZERO DOTS = YOUR FISH GO HUNGRY.It took an embarrassingly long and frustrating time to figure this out.

Perfect answer for feeding my large goldfish when I’m away up to 7 days! Very reliable and easy to setup.

I bought 5 for all of my aquaria. 15 slots are provided and you can have more than one slot opening during the day or on days of your choice. Worked really well - I used them for 12 days and all of the tanks were appropriately fed.

The compartments are missing a bottom. There is no way to control how much food is released. Otherwise it’s easy to program.

The media could not be loaded. Pretty neat! I am actually going to use this as a feeder for my bunnies pellets when on vacation. He is overweight (not the bunny in the video) and gets 1 tsp of pellets twice a day. I could not find an automatic feeder that fed a 1 tsp portion and had at least 14 feeds. This is perfect and simple. Each little compartment fits pretty much exactly 1 tsp of pellets.

Update to one star, literally the day I grabbed this to go on vacation again. Have had this for 5 months, used for 2 weeks and the automation feature is not working.All of the times are set, they have one dot, the daily interval is set to 1, everything matched the instructions and reviews.... And it just doesn't dispense automatically. The manual dispense option works like a charm, but it's not running as expected. Very frustrating for me and my fish....This was perfect for my week long trip-- it kept my fish fed and was one less thing for my car sitter to worry aboutFunctionality - the programming is confusing, I'm still not sure if I have it set for twice a day or not, but it at least goes once! I'd suggest improving the instructions a little, or making a video for itCapacity - good for goldfish pellets, and holds a decent sized scoop. To dispense it slides open a little trap door, then closes back up and spins the wheels. Nifty.Battery Life - good so far, lasted the entire week and a couple days till I turned it off.The only thing I had an issue with was the ability to clamp it on my tank. It will only work if you have a tank with straight sides, or a very thin ledge. My lid sits on an extruding ledge at the top so the clamp couldn't make a connection on both the outside and inside. My workaround was to sit it on top of the lid right above a small opening in the back where the filter is. It dispensed straight down into the water and as long as I didn't accidentally nudge the feeder away from that hole it worked perfectly. The fish learned the sound of the feeder and knew where in the tank to be!
