I have used an Ehiem feeder that uses this same design for years. I like the rotating tumbler concept of all the designs; and I have tried them all. But my feeding routine is a little complicated. Turn on the light, turn off the HOB, turn off the wavemaker and then distribute the food. I turn off the HOB and the wavemaker to minimize surface disturbance when feeding. I keep the canister on.When I go on vacation, I set up the automatic feeder. But my old feeder was triggered by time and it was impossible to stop the turbulence for feeding. This puppy solves the problem. Once set up, I can trigger it from afar or make it part of a routine. Since I already had the routine (see above), I worked it into an Alexa Routine. So cool. I do not use it when I am home because I enjoy varying the food and actually dispensing it.I am a knowledgeable end-user but I had the worst time setting up the wifi. It just wouldn't take. So I tried what they call the AP Mode and it worked like a dream. Basically, you turn the feeder into a hot spot and then pair your phone to it, instead of the other way around. Just follow the directions on page 3. The directions are very good which is unusual for a Chinese product.If you care, here is my Alexa Routine, triggered by "Alexa, feed the fish.Fishlight ONHOB OFF (HOB is my HOB, wavemaker, and heater)Wait 5 secondsFishfeeder ONWait 10 secondsFishfeeder ON (I found that I could dose exactly what I wanted with 2 rotations)Wait 90 secondsHOB ONWait 15 minutesFishlight OFFAs always, test the feeder on your desk with a plate under it for a couple of days until you get the dose correct and you confidence up.

This thing is a godsend. Away for the night or a few or more, use the app on your phone, press feed and the dose that you measure is released. Obviously granular food is the go because of moisture but this thing works a treat.

Au départ pour partir en vacance 1 semaine début juillet . Il fonctionne encore mi août. Bien pratique avec la programmation domotique. Il faut juste surveiller le niveau de nourriture et remplir de temps en temps.

This feeder works well. I have a covered tank with a small hole. I was able to use the provided Velcro to position the feeder over so that I could feed my fish while on vacation. It did take me a few minutes to get the app to register but after shutting it down and restarting I was successful (I did submit an email to customer service and they responded in a timely manner but I had already resolved the registration question). I was able to program multiple feedings per day in the app as well as go into the app and feed on demand. The app is simple to use and this product was a lifesaver when going on a 5 day trip. I used both flakes and crisps in the feeder drum. It did take me a few tries to get the little sliding door to dispense the correct amount of food. I have a 30 galon half moon tank which houses 4 large angels, 2 Corey Cats, a large plecko, a large catfish and a crayfish. I’d recommend this product it is lite weight and simple to use. The directions make it easy to set up. The feeder also has a button that you can manual press to feed both on the device as well as in the app. I like the ease of this feeder that I’ve decided to use it even when home so my fish revive the same amount of food at the same time every day. I did not use the large algae eater biscuits in this as I do not feed those every day.

I was so excited to finally find a feeder that used electricity rather than batteries. The fact that it has an app....great also. The main challenge is when I was out of town I kept checking and kept seeing "offline"...ugh. I worried the whole time I was out of town that I would come home to a tank full of dead starved fish. Thankfully everything was fine, but I was only gone for 4 days. When I initially got the unit it plugged up perfectly and all was well. However, now that I've had it for a few weeks the little blue light on the unit showing it's connected will come on....then go off...back on....off....always unpredictable. I tried unplugging it and replugging it back up, light comes off for about 3 seconds then goes back off. Since it used a standard older style Android plug, which I have boxes of, I selected a brand new plug, tried it, light came on for 3 seconds then went out again. At this point I've come to realize it's not the plug but yet the unit itself. Very sad because I thought it was the greatest thing since sliced bread until it died in less than a month. Ugh
