When do you need an automatic feeder in the aquarium?

Automatic feeders take over the feeding of ornamental fish while you are away. This means you can go on holiday with peace of mind and the fish are well looked after.

Start up the automatic feeder two weeks before you go on holiday. This allows you to monitor the amount of food and if too much food is fed into the aquarium, you can change the water. It makes sense to install an automatic feeder during your holiday, even if your neighbour is feeding. Otherwise, there is usually more than enough food and the balance in the aquarium is upset.

Automatic feeders are available from JBL, EHEIM, Sera, Aquael and Superfish. Depending on the requirements, different types of food can also be added.
