Eheim Everyday Fish Feeder Food Dispenser

I bought this over a year ago and getting ready to buy again they work for a year to a year and half than just stop working so you have to pay attention to it if you get use to it doing its job. I do believe it is the best out there.

I've tried a number of feeders for my fish, and find this to be the best. Easy to set timer for one or multiple feedings. Volume flow is easily adaptable. Best of all it is slim and can fit into smaller areas than other feeders.

Going for a trip and was worried about feeding my fishes, Started using it few days ago and works exactly as it described.

works great settings are easy to set, i dont have to fill it for almost three weeks.

I felt the programming instructions could have been a little better but once mastered, I love this unit. It can be mounted or simply set on top of the aquarium hood. Can feed once, twice or three times daily and even the amount that it dispenses can be managed. The cup holds enough food to last a couple of weeks even at heavy feeding. I highly recommend this item.

This fish feeder is way way better than the last one we bought. The last one, only 25% of the food flakes made it into the tank. This works perfectly.

The timer function works well -- it rotates at the set time. However, the distribution of food (mainly flakes and bloodworms) needs fine-tuning. On the lowest setting -- the smallest opening you can manually set it to -- doesn't distribute enough food for my 8 fish, yet the second setting distributes too much. This does work better than the various dissolve or pick-away vacation food "inserts" -- my fish didn't either eat, it clouded the water, or just didn't dissolve. I'm inclined to set this at the lowest setting and hope for the best, but I just don't feel confident enough in the Eheim "Everyday Fish Feeder" to depend on it alone. I'll still schedule a human to visit every few days to check The timer function works well -- it rotates at the set time.

This works great, but unfortunately it also causes fish food to loose its scent and make it so my fish have a hard time finding where the food is. I use it for my Dwarf Frogs too, but since they don’t have good eyesight along with many other types of aquatic animals, they have to use smell to find their food in the tank. The feeder has a fan to keep all the food dry which makes sense, but totally airs out the scented food /: Wish it would have worked better for me, bummed it just didn’t work out the way I wanted it too. Would recommend though if your fish rely on sight instead of smell! Works great for that!!

This feeder works really good. Still testing it out but so far I feel I can trust it to feed correctly while we are on vacation. My last feeder gummed up right after we left and the fish were not fed for two weeks. Luckily everyone survived. This will not be the case with this new feeder because it operates differently to prevent this .

I used to use vacation feeders. They were a disaster - dirty water, frequent cleaning and dead fish. I have clean aquariums, lest maintenance and best of all - all healthy fish! Wish I had discovered these a long time ago...
