FREESEA Aquarium Automatic Fish Feeder: Programmable Auto Food Dispenser - Smart Fish Tank Vacation Timer Feeder (Battery Operated)

So worth the purchase! I was gone for 5 days and came home with all my fishies happy. 150 gallon tank, 8 full size fancy goldfish...bought 2 feeders and had them dispense at alternating times because I wasn't sure how long the food would last, but after 5 days there was still plenty left. Very pleased with the purchase. Easy to set up and you can adjust how much is dispensed at a time (make sure you test it and it is dispensing how much you want to feed).

Bought this when I went out of state for a week. I tested out the amount of food being dropped by adjusting the trap door, and then set it in a 2; hour timer. My fish were happy and full while I was states away

I returned it because it was too big for my fish tank and I couldn't place it in any way but it was quite good

The media could not be loaded. I bought this automatic fish feeder because I was going to be out of town for a few days and wanted to make sure my fish were well-fed while I was away. I’m really impressed with how easy it was to set up!One of my favorite features is the adjustable feeding amount—you can control exactly how much food is dispensed, which is great for preventing overfeeding. I also love the timer options. You can set it to feed every 8, 12, or 24 hours, which gives you plenty of flexibility depending on your tank’s needs.It gave me peace of mind knowing my fish were taken care of while I was gone. Highly recommend this feeder for anyone who travels or just wants a reliable backup for daily feeding!

This Product works and can feed your fish while you are away. BUT THE AMOUNT OF FOOD! It’s unbelievable. It put enough food for my fish that I give them in a few days. I even adjusted the amount and it still gave to much.

Love this,, it dispenses the right amount and I don’t have to worry about my fish not getting fed, while I’m away from home. It is almost noise free. I wish I had bought one sooner.

kept fish alive and fed in 3 separate tanks for my 9 day trip (i ordered 3)

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.
