Fish Mate F14 Automatic Aquarium Fish Feeder

Worked perfectly. It was worth every penny. I was away on vacation for 9 days and my fish were just fine and well fed when I returned.

I did a lot of research prior to getting this fish feeder. My impetus for getting one was going on a family trip with no one reliable to feed my hungry fish. I am very glad I got this feeder and wish I had done it earlier. I mix the flakes and pellets together and place some of the mixture in each of the compartments and the feeder dispenses it a little at a time. Very convenient. My biggest concern prior to ordering it was , how was I going to attach it to my tank? I have one of those stock 55-gal. rectangular tanks with the double hood with the florescent lights. The solution: I removed one of the middle prescored areas in the back of one of the hoods and perched the feeder on top of the elevated area containing the light. The food drops right into the the back of the aquarium and disperses on top of the water. Also I think the heat from the light helps to keep the food dry and not sticking to the dispenser. The only problem is getting the food into the small slots. I use a metal baby spoon, but it is still a little messy. Love it! Wish I had gotten it sooner!

I got it to feed algae wafers overnight and it does well with those. I haven't tried flake food but I don't think it would work well with flake food as there is some space at the bottom of the rotating feeder that flake food could get stuck under. Anything bulkier like wafers and pellets it works great, like the flexible feeding time variations.

The fish feeder I recieved works great! It seems to be a well made product and will last. Thank you for a great product and FAST service!

We have a 16 gal. aquarium. We have the feeder in the back at the top. There are 5 skirt fish and 2 small catfish. We frequently go on vacation. This feeder is reliable and does not get the food wet, so small flakes work fine. There is only a thumbtack amount of food in each slot and it drops out fine (over an hour of time) as it rotates. Would highly recommend.

Simple, effective and lasts a long time. I have 6 of them. They work best with granular food, but dispense flakes well too. If you don't use them outside in the weather or let a battery go bad and leak inside the compartment, they should last as long as a quartz wall clock. Works on the same principle.

Easy to use. Easy to set up. Always feed the correct amount of food. Better than other feeders.

Works great for feeding my betta. Precise feeding portions.Would highly recommend

I currently use 15 of these every week. They are perfect for pellet food and the 1 AA battery lasts over 12 months. Easy to clean and are easy to load if you use a folded business card as a funnel!

Fish Mate F14 does work, great product. Have had it for over two years, and it's still working on the same AA batteries!
