"Very quiet in operation."

It's been two weeks and Betta Boy has figured out who feeds him now. That is the only potential issue with automatic feeders. The size of the food compartment is huge depending on the number of fish you have. Otherwise you will no doubt eventually get water in there. Unfortunately, most pet store aquariums do have a lip. On this one you don't have to reset anything when filling. I learned this the hard way coming back from a one week vacation.

3. (3 Pack) Vacation Feeder - Crab Shape - 7-Day (1 Feeder Per Pack)

ProBalance First Impressions

"This thing worked great."

Suitable for locating anywhere on the tank ledge. The only other thing that you should be aware of is the large size of the unit. There is a small sliding door that allows the food to escape. I figured too much food was better than too little. The barrel with the food spins at each specified feeding time. However, this is not a good fit for that purpose. The unit itself is very sturdy and well made.
