Penn Plax Daily-Double Automatic Fish Feeder

The Penn Plax Daily-Double Automatic Fish Feeder is a highly functional device designed to ensure your fish are fed consistently, especially during times when you're away, such as vacations or holidays. Its notable features make it a convenient choice for both freshwater and saltwater aquariums. Key Features: Large Capacity Food Drum: It can hold enough flake food to last up to 4 weeks, making it ideal for extended periods when you're not available to feed your fish manually. Twice Daily Feeding: The feeder operates on a 12-hour cycle, feeding your fish twice a day. This is a preset setting and cannot be changed. Battery Operated: It requires 1 AA battery to function. Please note the battery is not included with the feeder. Designed for Flake Fish Food: It is optimized for finely crushed flake food. Larger flakes should be broken up to avoid clogging. While pellet food can be used, it's recommended to fill the drum only to 1/3 capacity and check regularly. Moisture Prevention: To keep the food dry, it's advised not to place the feeder above bubbling aquarium accessories like air stones or aerating ornaments, as they can introduce moisture and cause clogging. Versatile Mounting: The feeder can be mounted directly onto the tank or placed freestanding on top of an aquarium cover or lid. Adjustable Food Dispenser: It includes an adjustable food dispenser to control the quantity of food dispensed. On/Off Switch: The latest model features an On/Off switch, allowing more control over the start of the 12-hour feeding interval. This feeder is particularly useful for aquarists who need a reliable feeding solution during their absence, ensuring their aquatic pets are well-fed without the need for daily manual feeding.
