AquaMiracle Programmable Automatic Fish Feeder for Aquarium, Auto Fish Food Dispenser with Timer, Volume Adjustable Vacation Aquarium Feeder with Digital Display, for Granules Pallets Strips

These feeders are simple to use and work great. I have been using them for a year now and they still are going strong. I even ordered a couple more for extras. You just adjust the size of the space you want and then set the number of times you want them to release food per day. I highly recommend these feeders.

I used it for a 4-day trip, there was still food left in it, as planned. There was however an overspill of food on the side of the tank that would drop out after its rotation should have allowed the food to fall, wouldn't have been an issue except for I had to have the feeder at such an angle because of the lid on the fish tank that had it been completely over the water there would have not had been any mess. On the upside, you're able to position it in almost any position, which definitely came in handy for the small space I needed it to fit in. It's quiet, has I believe three or four different timers, every 6 hours every 12 hours every 18 hours or every 24 hours. The one thing that I did read and the instructions is it's not really meant for flake food, it's more design for pellets. I had a combination going and that seemed to work. The opening to release the food can be placed into multiple variations of an opening, could have a little teeny crack or you can have it wide open. Installation was easy enough, getting the food into the container and ceiling it back up easy enough, it was packaged well when it arrived. It arrived on time. Would I use it everyday as a feeder, sure, but I'd still check on it every few days. As far as I'm aware it's battery life is good, but I only ran it for 4 days, and apparently it can go weeks or more depending on how often you have it set to go off. If you're just going to be gone a few days a week at most I would trust it, any longer than that your food should actually run out but also I don't know if it wouldn't get clogged -depending on how big you had the opening to release the food.

Works just as it says, is a little messier than expected, fits right over the opening in our top but tends to spill a small bit on either side when it rotates. The different timing options are great though, I like knowing my fish will be fed if I leave town for a day or two without a neighbor having to check on them

Going on a long road trip and needed a good solution to keep our fish fed while we are gone...and not make our son come over every day! This little gadget works great! I have flakes in it, they are smaller kinda crushed up flakes, not the big fat ones so they work great. Super easy to program, we feed once a day, so hit the 24hr button to make it work and check how much comes out and adjust opening if needed.Also super handy that the base rotates to help get the opening into any position needed. I have a cover on my tank and only one side has an opening where the heater sits. I was able to mount on the rim of the tank and crank the base over just enough so the food falls in the available opening which wasn't a lot. Works perfect! Trip or not, this thing is feeding the fish from now on!

Received item today , prompt shipping and delivery . Item works as it should. I tried out the various setting .Everything was fine . I really like that you can adjust how much food to dispense and the number of rotations of food . I also like that you can put pellets in this feeder . Many other feeders do not recommend pellets , however I needed one that could dispense pellets with no issues . The scheduling was easy to set up . I am SO extremely pleased with purchasing this item . It is perfect on my koi . The first one I ordered would not program , was given a refund. However, I decided to try another one. because I liked the features etc. So glad I ordered this one.

It never works at the time I chose

Great purchase. Does work , havent had any issues

Went away on vacation and decided to give one of these fish feeders a try. I have both pellet and flake food and tried this with both types. For pellet food it works really well, and is pretty consistent in terms of dispensing the food. Flakes on the other hand do not work as well, as they tend to stick to the inside of the "barrel" and sometimes dispense a lot and other times dispense very little.However, if you want to make sure all of your fishy friends survive during your vacation to Disney, this will definitely do the trick. For a longer term solution, I'm not sure I would recommend it, due to the consistency, but mainly due to the size and look of the thing. I sort of thought I would keep the dispenser on my fish tank all of the time, but it is very big and bulky and just doesn't look good. If you have a top cabinet on your tank that will hide this, that would be the best scenario. Otherwise, I'm hoping someone releases a smaller, more compact version in the future.
