Automatic aquarium feeder sera XS-Feeder — 150 ml capacity, battery AA (1.5 V), black

The sera XS-Feeder is an automatic aquarium feeder with a 150 ml hopper for dry food. Designed for compact installation, its black housing and battery operation (AA 1.5 V) allow placement without a mains connection. The unit accepts granules of different sizes and provides stepless adjustment of portion size, making it suitable for both small home aquariums and larger, densely stocked tanks. Programming is straightforward: the first feeding time is set automatically on switch-on and an optional second feeding follows five hours later. The feeder can be placed on a hood using the included pedestal or fixed to the aquarium glass with the supplied holder bracket.

Advantages

The automatic feeder stores up to 150 ml of dry fish food and dispenses measured portions using a stepless dosage adjuster, enabling precise portion control for a range of pellet sizes. Battery operation (two AA 1.5 V batteries) removes the need for a power outlet and simplifies placement. Simple programming with an automatic first feeding time and an optional second feeding 5 hours later reduces setup time. The compact black housing and two mounting options (hood pedestal or glass bracket) provide installation flexibility for different aquarium setups.

Suitable for

• Feeding small to medium home aquariums with dry granules or pellets
• Temporary feeding during short trips or absences
• Routinely scheduled feeding in daily care routines
• Feeding in open aquariums or on aquarium hoods using different mounting options
• Terrarium use for small animals such as young terrapins that accept dry pellets

How to use

Fill the 150 ml hopper with dry food appropriate for your fish size. Insert two AA (1.5 V) batteries into the battery compartment and switch the unit on; the first feeding time will be set automatically. Adjust portion size by turning the stepless dosage adjuster until the desired amount is selected. If a second daily feeding is required, enable the second feeding option so it follows five hours after the first. Install the feeder on the aquarium hood using the included pedestal or attach it to the glass with the supplied holder bracket, ensuring stable placement and that the dispenser outlet is aligned over the water surface or feeding zone.

Usage recommendations

Use dry granules or pellets sized appropriately for the dosage adjuster and the species you keep. Check battery level before extended absences and clean the hopper and dispenser regularly to avoid clogging. For mixed or moist foods, do not use the device. When mounting, verify that the feeder is securely fixed and that portions fall into the aquarium without obstruction.
