corrosionjerry Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 I am looking for an automatic feeder that will allow me to feed 1mm pellet NLS.... I have several feeders now that just dont do this well... flake etc are ok with my autos but 1mm NLS is tricky / Not a fan of auto feeders however it is for Discus that need to be fed during the day.... Any Ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drydock Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 If all else fails, there is an NLS flake... NC has some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
byte Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Fill up the auto feeder, clamp it onto a mug or something, and play with the settings for a few days before sticking it on the tank. I found that the first time I filled it up and it turned the first revolution it did not work as good as a few revolutions later. It seems the food comes out better after a few tumbles.

devocole Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Jerr I told you about the Rondomatic. It is the best one around but it is expensive new, about 100 bucks. But keep your eye on ebay. I got mine used for 24 US. After shipping about 50 or 60 bucks canadian. It has individual compartments and you can feed 5 times in one day if you want and has 28 different compartments. Look it up. You can dose ferts with it too if you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishkabod Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 I have an automatic feeder that i'm not useing because i really really LOVE to watch my fish gobble the food up. Anyway you don't live too far from me so if you wanted to borrow mine to see if it'll work then PM me. Tomorrow is my lazy day so i'll be at home all day if you want to stop by. Have fun Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happeboy Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 don't know what you have now but Eheim Automatic Twin Feeder 3582 is garbage only does flake. Ive tried other cheap ones and the rotating dumping kind by they dont work either. lifeguard Rondomatic, it was always the one I wanted, it may work. I decided to stop wasting money on feeders before I got to it, just used flake in the eheim above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firestorm Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 We use the nutrafin profeeders the rena's, and these types of feeders http://cgi.ebay.ph/PROMO-SALE-REPTILE-FISH...%3A1|240%3A1318. We use a mix of 1mm pellets and flake in the feeders and they seem to work fine with the pellets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
