"Works as advertised."

Otherwise you can hang this pretty much anywhere if your tank doesn't have a cover. There are a couple ways to mount this feeder. It takes 3 presses of the set button to move to the 3rd feeding time. My son loves this automatic fish feeder. Another big tip for flake food users. USB charging is quick and easy and uses a standard micro USB cable. Not carbon zinc, alkaline batteries.

"Nice mounting features."

I simply modified my hood to accommodate this feeder. I can leave town and not worry about the fish. Easy to setup and ability to set a desired feed schedule. This certainly worked for my purposes. I think that's a great idea and I will probably do the same. Taping a piece of ribbon in place worked out better. So far I have only used flake food in it, but it's handling it just fine.

"Seems to work good."

It's been using for twice a day for 5 weeks, still no need for charging the battery. The pellets stick to the tape and slowly build up clogging the hole. 5 notches and it's worked perfectly for me. 3-second Long Press on rightmost button turns feeder on and off. Not sure why they suggest not to do so, but it worked just fine. I am sure they all would have worked, but I was skeptical about some features. Forgetting to feed your fish will not happen again with this Auto Fish Feeder.

"Best thing I ever bought."

I look forward to my next vacation with asking someone to feed my fish. The unit arrived partially charged. He eats once a day, but you can set this to feed up to four times a day. I have used this every day for a year and love it. However, this is not a good fit for that purpose. They even include two alkaline AA batteries in the box. I uploaded a video so if you found this helpful please give it a thumbs up.

"Hope this review helped."

There were a few cheaper feeders that I considered. It's been using for twice a day for 5 weeks, still no need for charging the battery. Programming feeding times is easy using the instructions provided. It's been two weeks and Betta Boy has figured out who feeds him now. This would have been a great investment when I started my aquarium 30 years ago. Must be at least 1 or it will not feed at all. For the gouramis I have flake food, but for the corys I have sinking pellets.

"Easy to install and use."

However, this is not a good fit for that purpose. I have the Stage 2 round pellet feed. This certainly worked for my purposes. I look forward to my next vacation with asking someone to feed my fish.

"For us it was perfect!"

The feeder has helped me automate my tank, which is one less thing to worry about. The price was good, and I recommend it!

"Nice mounting features."

It is tied down to keep it from falling into the tank. This will ruin li-ion batteries over time. You can tell it how many times you want it to spin, up to 3, I think. The unit itself is very sturdy and well made. Don't lose the instructions or you'll go crazy trying to program it. I have mine set at the smallest possible opening. Product does NOT come with required AA batteries.

"Worked great!"

However until I find a tank that fits my space, that is it. The notches are too widely spaced and too ill fitting. Not sure why they suggest not to do so, but it worked just fine. They mostly were checking in to make sure this EHEIM feeder was working. This fish feeder is very configurable and reliable. Also don't leave the USB port connected to a charger all the time. Another nice feature is the feeder will rotate on its screw attachment base.
