"So far so good!"

This does everything but fill itself with food. The first opening was way too small. They mostly were checking in to make sure this EHEIM feeder was working. I figured too much food was better than too little. However, this is not a good fit for that purpose. It runs off batteries so it lasts the full two weeks they are gone. There are a couple ways to mount this feeder.

Pssopp Final Thoughts

"It worked."

May want to test it a few times before leaving for a long trip. I tested it on plain paper several times before graduating it to the tank. I look forward to my next vacation with asking someone to feed my fish. Overall this is a very good feeder. Product does NOT come with required AA batteries. You can make it work with these, but you need to be careful. This fish feeder is very configurable and reliable.

"This works perfect!"

It would probably sell like hot cakes. I purchased this before a month-long vacation. I like to keep consistency with the tank. I did a couple test pours into a plastic bag so I could get it just right. However, this is not a good fit for that purpose. Filling the container is easy, and the auto timer is amazing.

"Very handy gadget!"

It's been two weeks and Betta Boy has figured out who feeds him now. It took a min to figure out the instructions. The slider door lets you set it for as wide or as narrow as you need. I also find it much easier to program. 5 notches and it's worked perfectly for me. I purchased this before a month-long vacation. Fast delivery,easy instructions to set up time and feeding.

"Overall, a good product."

Overall this is a very good feeder. It would probably sell like hot cakes. He and his wife travel to India to see his in-laws. It holds a very large amount of food and was very overkill for my setup. It is tied down to keep it from falling into the tank. I also find it much easier to program. Must be at least 1 or it will not feed at all.

Eheim 3581090 Final Thoughts

"It s working out great."

The size of the food compartment is huge depending on the number of fish you have. The notches are too widely spaced and too ill fitting. This would have been a great investment when I started my aquarium 30 years ago. So you don't have to constantly be adding food. The other way you can mount this is with a stick on mount. Sure the stench is appalling but he's fed. I am very happy to own this feeder.

The only other thing that you should be aware of is the large size of the unit. That is the only potential issue with automatic feeders.

"Nice product, works well."

I am not sure if he ever associated the vibration with food. They mostly were checking in to make sure this EHEIM feeder was working. There was no problem mounting the unit on the lip of the bowl. I tested it on plain paper several times before graduating it to the tank. So you don't have to constantly be adding food. Otherwise, food collects itself on the rear side of aquarium. That number of rotations shows as tiny number in the left-most lower window.

5. Penn-Plax Pro Balance Vacation Fish Feeder – Slow Release Food That’s Great for Weekend Vacays: ...

User Ratings: 62 7

Penn-Plax First Impressions

"Right above him."

I have this on a 60 gallon aquarium and so far it's working great! The size of the tank is too small to recommend. They have fish and the need for them to be fed was much needed. However, I was able to get it to stay stuck in between two. Consistent food size is the key to more consistent results. The pellets stick to the tape and slowly build up clogging the hole. I uploaded a video so if you found this helpful please give it a thumbs up.

  • Penn-Plax Pro Balance Vacation Fish Feeder – Slow Release Food That’s Great for Weekend Vacays: 1 Block Feeds up to 3 Days (4 Blocks per Package) – Safe for Freshwater & Saltwater Tanks
  • GREAT FOR WEEKEND VACAYS: Worried about finding a fish-sitter as you plan for your next weekend getaway or adventure? Or, whenever or not they’ll overfeed your fish? Fear no more! Our Pro Balance Vacation Fish Feeder Blocks will feed your fish while you’re away. Each block feeds to up 3 days, and each package contains 4 Starfish Shaped Blocks.
  • IDEAL FOR 10 – 15 GALLON TANKS: Our Fish Feeder Blocks work best in aquariums that are between 10 and 15 Gallons in size. One block will last 3 to 4 days depending on the PH level and water temperature. A minimum water temperature of 72°F (22°C) and PH level of 6.6 to 7.0 is most efficient for the release of food particles.
  • REQUIRES AERATION & CIRCULATION: Within hours, our Feeder Blocks will start to dissolve, releasing nutritious freeze-dried foods while neutralizing your aquarium’s water. In order for this to happen, your tank should have the proper aeration and circulation. Our Feeder Blocks dissolve normally with setups that have an air stone or filter.
  • GIVE IT A TRY BEFORE YOUR TRIP: Just like us, our fish can get picky over their food. As a suggestion, you may want to place 1 Feeder Block in your tank a week before your vacation or trip. This way, you’ll see if they like it or not. To take it a step further, you may want to leave the tank alone as you test our Feed Blocks, mimicking the trip.
  • INGREDIENTS: Calcium Sulfate, Freeze-Dried Tubifex Worm, Freeze-Dried Bloodworm, Freeze-Dried Daphnia, Freeze-Dried White Shrimp, Thiamine Mononitrate (Source of Vitamin B1), and Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (Source of Vitamin B6).

Penn-Plax Final Thoughts

"Absolutely love it."

Took me all of 5 minutes start to finish to get it set up. The pellets stick to the tape and slowly build up clogging the hole. Don't lose the instructions or you'll go crazy trying to program it. May want to test it a few times before leaving for a long trip. Comes on a swivel bracket to accommodate special angles for installation. The feeder has helped me automate my tank, which is one less thing to worry about. Taping a piece of ribbon in place worked out better.

The narrow tip of the long-handled tool reaches hidden crevices and underneath the gravel at the bottom of your tank to remove residual food and excess debris.
  • ✔ ACCURATE, EASY TO READ MEASUREMENTS --- The transparent body of the Sea Squirt Feeder is clearly printed with 10mL, 15mL, 20mL and 30mL measurements for easy to read accuracy. Being able to see the amount of liquid in the tube ensures that you know how much you are dispensing and restricts overfeeding.
  • ✔ USE TO REMOVE UNWANTED ANEMONES --- Although many sea anemones are quite a beautiful addition to aquariums, there are some like the Aiptasia and Majano anemones that can become a nuisance. The SunGrow Aquarium Pipette is the perfect tool to apply removal solutions which reduce their spread further.
  • ✔ INCLUDES EXTENSION FOR ADDED LENGTH --- The graduated dropper starts out at 9.8” (25cm) to keep your arms, hands, and sleeves dry while feeding your aquatic pets. An almost 10” (28 cm) extension tube easily slips on for a total length of around 18” (45cm) for clearing those deep, hard to reach areas. Being versatile enough to work in both small and medium-sized tanks is perfect for enthusiasts who have multiple aquariums.
  • ✔ MADE USING HIGH QUALITY, DURABLE MATERIAL --- Made with high quality raw material that is durable, the SunGrow Squirt Feeder is expertly crafted with acrylic.

"This is a 24-hour clock."

I can leave town and not worry about the fish. All the time and effort I could have saved. I have a one gallon tank with a betta. I have a 75 gallon tank, and removed a 1. The feeder is also sleek and has a small footprint. I have not, however, tested it with pelleted food. The unit itself is very sturdy and well made.

You can tell it how many times you want it to spin, up to 3, I think. I figure it holds enough for about 5 days at the current feeding rate.
