automatic feeders

[grinner]

i wanting to feed my fish up a bit more without cramming all feeds inbetween 6-11 when i finish work, i never used one before and wondered if there any good.
i was looking at the eheim ones.
anyone had any experience with theses before?

Hi Grinner i was in the same boat as yourself...Never realy had much dealings with them eother though.....

never used them either but i feed before & after work , as soon as i get up i put the lights on and feed them before i leave

Never used these either so sorry can't help.

Generally I'd avoid using those things, but that's only if you're not going to be checking on it, as you're not actually going away and you'll be checking it several times a day, I guess there would be no harm in it. I say go for it.

Ray how long u away for ?
I could feed them if u are stuck

[Ray]

Hi Frazer , i am away for two weeks in June ..I think my neighbour would do it but i just thought a feeder would have been easier..

Thanks for the nice offer Frazer...

[Frazfisher]

No worries
u better show him how to do a water change

Unless there are fry in there, just dont feed them. They will be fine and the water paranmeters will stay better longer.

Jim i have done that before but i hvae a couple of fry survivers maybe a half inch big , i was not sure if they were big enough to do that with ...

[Jimbo]

they could do with being fed. They would be Ok for a few days - but wouldn't like to leave them unfed for any longer than that.
