Fish Feeding Made Easy With An Automatic Feeder

Manifest What you Want, Whenever you Want....
If you are a fish tank owner, you have surely found yourself wishing - at one point or another - that your fish could just be fed automatically. And if you have ever gone out of town on vacation and had to ask a friend to swing by the house to feed your fish twice per day, you have probably wished this even more! If you have ever wished that there was a way to feed your fish automatically, without anyone having to be there, you are in luck!

Years ago, there were "automatic feeders" that could be dropped into your tank - these, of course, were large bits of food that were intended to feed your fish over time. These tablets of food were intended to give off a small amount of food at a time, feeding your fish for anywhere from seven to fourteen days. However, chances are pretty good that you vowed to never use one of these again if you ever used one once! This is, of course, because people came home from a vacation far too often to discover that their fish had eaten the whole tablet in a day or two and either died from overeating or from subsequent starvation.

Times have changed since then, however, and there are a few great options in particular for automatic feeders that actually work!

One such feeder that works well - holding several days worth of food - and which is affordable at around $25 is the Anim F14 Fish Mate Feeder. A couple complaints about this product, however, have been the fact that there needs to be an opening in your lid for it to work, and the food sometimes gets stuck and does not dispense!

As for an excellent product that is only one small step up the price ladder, check out the EHEIM Everyday Fish Feeder. This product rarely presents its users with problems, and it is easy to program and easy to use! You are sure to feel that this product makes your life significantly easier, and at only $35, it is an excellent deal.

Make sure you test your new automatic feeder for a few days before you go out of town to make sure it is working properly; if it is working properly, of course, you are certain to be glad with your purchase!
