Tetra First Impressions
"Product works great."The rechargeable battery makes me feel better about the environment. That number of rotations shows as tiny number in the left-most lower window. Otherwise you can hang this pretty much anywhere if your tank doesn't have a cover. Programming was not too difficult, but does need careful reading. Otherwise you will no doubt eventually get water in there. This would have been a great investment when I started my aquarium 30 years ago. 3-second Long Press on rightmost button turns feeder on and off.

Tetra AQ-78247 Final Thoughts
"Overall, a good product."Unfortunately, most pet store aquariums do have a lip. Online instructions are not much help. Set the hour then minute, then number of rotations at that time. I can leave town and not worry about the fish. Also don't leave the USB port connected to a charger all the time. Otherwise you will no doubt eventually get water in there. I learned this the hard way coming back from a one week vacation.

"Works really well."He eats once a day, but you can set this to feed up to four times a day. Not carbon zinc, alkaline batteries. Taping a piece of ribbon in place worked out better. He and his wife travel to India to see his in-laws. They have fish and the need for them to be fed was much needed. Suitable for locating anywhere on the tank ledge. There was no problem mounting the unit on the lip of the bowl.

The interface on the feeder is extremely user friendly.

"No more moisture!"I am sure they all would have worked, but I was skeptical about some features. Easy to setup and ability to set a desired feed schedule. I have mine set at the smallest possible opening. I uploaded a video so if you found this helpful please give it a thumbs up. Sure the stench is appalling but he's fed. You slide the opening to adjust how much food you want to come out. And yes, you can use flake food like I do, just fine.

Otherwise, food collects itself on the rear side of aquarium. Otherwise, food collects itself on the rear side of aquarium. Fast delivery,easy instructions to set up time and feeding.
