This replaces a much older Eheim automatic feeder that stopped working when insects climbed in and gummed up the inner workings to destroy the fan and tumbler.Feeder holds a LOT of food! I am using it for a 75 gallon tank of mostly goldfish, 3 of which are 2.5” long while the 5 others are between 8” and 11”, plus 4 Corydoras catfish and a Plecostomus. I needed to enlarge the portal for the food drop, by trimming the plastic strip that fits on the glass lid. I chose the battery powered version rather than rechargeable or plug in versions. The sliding adjuster for the opening that dispenses the food, is a bit stiff. When refilled, you must try several food drops away from your tank, preferably on a piece of paper, so you can see just how much food is dispensed in a drop! Don’t just refill and reattach to your tank, or you could have an overfeeding or underfeeding catastrophe in the making.I use the 1 feeding/24 hours cycle in my tank. When I refill the food container, I carefully determine how wide the opening slide needs to be for dispensing the proper amount of food based on pellet size, and test it manually several times. This means putting the test food back in to either the original container, or use the paper to put all of it back through the slot (I haven’t been successful at removing the whole slot portal yet, so this takes time). The 24 hour timer seems to reset itself if you use the manual setting to figure out how much food is dispensed, so my workaround is to take out 1 battery, the replace it – and the next day at the desired feeding time, restart the 24 hour timer. A little cumbersome, but it works for me.My Plecostomus gets fed wafers separately; they wouldn’t fit in this feeder. I can’t imagine using flakes or crisps, based on the feeding portal size. To date, I have not had the hole cover get gummed up by food sticking to it, as reported by other users. I also haven’t used it long enough to know how long the batteries last.
