    ‎ We like to use an auto feeder to feed our aquarium fish when we're going out of town, conditioning our fish for breeding, or trying to grow baby fry big and healthy. Here's a quick demo on how to program the Aquarium Co-Op Auto Feeder to feed your fish up to 4 times a day. Ideally, set up the auto feeder at least a couple days before you leave so you can make sure the schedule is programmed correctly and right amount of food is being fed.

      Mmmmmm, I think they bought this design over from a other brand because i have the same one but without the aquarium co op. But pretty smart it did went from 15 to 25 :)

    If you’ve got a fish that might jump out and you’ve got one of those glass lids with a vinyl piece at the back, you could punch a hole in the vinyl and stick a funnel in, then stick the feeder on the lid and position it so that it releases the pellets right over the funnel. I have yet to try this hack, but I might when I go on vacation after COVID is over. Keep up the good work Irene! You always make the best videos!

    Ive gotten 4 of these from you this year. Leaving for the Vaca we been planning for in a few days. Ive done pretty extensive testing with this over the past few months. As a Tip I use the tape to hold the door as ive found it can move during rotation. Other then that this unit is great. The feature i enjoy the most is the Internal battery , This had me come back for unit 3 and 4 vs ordering off amazon or buying LFS. I really didn't want the hassle of dead batts and this unit has ran months on 1 charge!!

    I wish there were more auto feeders, that use individual compartments opening and releasing all the contents at a time. Way easier to dose, way less prone to failure.

    I use an auto feeder when I have to leave my betta for longer trips, but always had a problem with it releasing too much food. That tape trick looks like it could be the solution to my issue, thank you so much for introducing me to it.

    I have been "out" of the hobby due to a move for about a year now. I haven't paid much attention to Co-Op vids and didn't even know this existed until I ordered one this morning, I still have two of the green ones I haven't even used. Maybe I will actually try this one!

    This seems like a great option when we go away. But since the container holding the food is open, has anyone had an issue with the food attracting bugs?

    If you use the sticker is it in that place forever? Also if you stick it on does part of it come off so you can charge it?

    So I’ve been mulling the fact that you cannot choose the days the feeder activates. I’m curious if you could implement a setting that would feed as soon as power is supplied. That way you could use a timer or smart plug to supply power for a minute or 30 seconds at the feed time. You could set the feet times for whatever time at whatever interval with whatever device you want. I feed every other day, and it would be good to determine Mondays are bloodworm day, but the other feed days could just be automatic.

    • @KrigareAvHallarna
      @KrigareAvHallarna 3 місяці тому +1

      I was also wondering about this. Yeah, I have some display tanks that only get dry food every 3rd day. I don't want them to eat every day! An option to do 48 or 72 hour intervals would be AMAZING.
      Or, along the line of your thinking; maybe just make the feeder a "smart device"? With Wi-Fi connectivity I would assume much greater customization could be unlocked...
