Automatic Feeders

[Carttman]

I was wondering if anyone has used a automatic fish feeder before? If so are they worth it, and who makes a good one? I have a eclipse 30 gallon tank. Will one even mount on my tank?

I had to use one once. It was a cheepy but it worked o.k.
Just make sure you watch it for a few days to make sure it works and isn't feeding too much or too little.
The one I used took twelve hours after plugging it in to do anything. But it could also be used free standing

I picked up a 7 day feeder at a rummage sale once. Haven't used it yet though..

I picked up one of the eheim gizmos on ebay. Worked great. I liked the ability to adjust how much pops out, and the digital multi-setting clock.

I have one of the cheap ones which dispenses every twelve hours. But I have stopped using it as the flakes tend to absorb moisture, stick thogether and nothing gets dispensed.

Might look at a better one in the future.
