Vacation feeder?

[Fishninja]

So I am going on vacation for a week and was wondering about vacation feeders. I looked at reveiws and some said it worked some didn't. So what are your personal experiences's with them?

I have used them twice on both my fresh water tanks and saltwater. I won't go away without putting them on. Make sure you set it right, has the right sized food in it, and make sure not to much food comes out at each feeding programmed

What brand should I use

 

[Moggy]

Nutrafin ones are good and cheap

 

[Fishninja]

Ok and just one is fine for a 20 gallon right

 

[Foskett96]

What brand should I use

I use the eheim one. Never have had any problems with the 3 I have

 

[Moggy]

Yea eheim ones good too

 

[Fishninja]

So 1 is fine for a 20 gallon

 

[Moggy]

Yea your fish can survive about 5 days without food so just one would be enough to keep them happy how many do you have ?

 

[Foskett96]

So 1 is fine for a 20 gallon

Yes 1 is definitely fine. I use just 1 for my 85 gallon

You could probably buy a weekend block feeder and that could do them but one auto feeder would be fine

 

[Fishninja]

What do u mean auto feeder

 

[Moggy]

Look up eheim or nutrafin auto feeders they are good. Fill it up and set it to feed how much and how often you want

 

[Fishninja]

Ok I'll do that

 

[Moggy]

They are about £10 here or $15 in u.s

 

[Foskett96]

If you didn't want to go to the trouble of getting the feeder and setting it up you could just go with the weekend block like moggy said.
