So I've decided to go with Anthias. That being the case and auto feeder seems to be in order. However I have a very nice canopy and jumpers in the tank. Does anyone know of Auto feeders that work well with canopy tanks?

I ended up just making a simple little cross brace in the canopy that the auto feeder attaches to. I just used a small strip of wood I had laying around.

I like the ehiem feeders I have 5 of them...lol don't judge me. When I find something that I trust(which takes a lot for me to trust something) I buy what I feel is needed. Anyways I highly recommend the ehiem and I use them in canopies as well.

As long as your feeder will fit you shouldn't need much room. I too happen to use the Eheim. I've had an Apex feeder for a couple of years that I've yet to hook up.

I did what @dbl did....a scrap piece of wood cut at 45's and put in the corner.....to hold an Eheim Everyday feeder:
Don't forget a "feeding ring" below the feeder to keep the food from immediately getting sucked down the overflow. I did a little DIY with tubing, and piece of dowel and two suction cups I had sitting around.
