Eheim autofeeder Automatic Fish Feeder 100 ml

The Eheim autofeeder is a compact and reliable automatic fish feeder designed to provide consistent and precise nutrition for your aquarium inhabitants. With a 100 ml capacity, this device ensures that your fish receive their meals on a regular schedule, making it an essential tool for aquarium maintenance during holidays or busy daily routines. The unit features a transparent food chamber that allows for easy monitoring of food levels, ensuring you always know when a refill is needed.

Advantages

This automatic feeder offers exceptional convenience through its intuitive programming, allowing users to set specific feeding times and portion sizes with ease. The integrated active aeration system keeps the food dry and prevents clumping, ensuring that the flakes or granules are dispensed smoothly every time. Its splash-resistant control panel adds a layer of durability, while the battery-operated design includes a warning system to alert you when power levels are low. The versatile mounting options make it compatible with both open-top aquariums and standard aquarium hoods, providing flexibility for various setups.

How to use

To begin using the Eheim autofeeder, insert the included batteries and fill the transparent chamber with your preferred flake or granular fish food.

You can trigger an additional feeding cycle at any time by pressing the manual snack button.

What to consider before purchase

• Check the dimensions of your aquarium hood or rim to ensure the bracket fits correctly.
• Ensure the food type used is compatible with the rotating drum mechanism.
