I just set up a 32g biocube (only 6 days old). I've got a lone clown fish in there for now (in addition to live rock that should be well cured). I'm finding myself wishing my pump had a feed mode on it. If I leave the pump on during feeding, the food is immediately sucked into chamber 1 and then the filter media. So, I've been turning the pump off for a few minutes for feeding, but then sometimes forget to turn it back on. Would a MightyJet Desktop return pump (326 gph) that includes the controller with a feed 10 minute feed mode be good for this tank? Is there some kind of external controller I could get instead to use with the stock pump? The stock pump seems to be fine from a flow perspective - there's a lot of current in my little tank (rated at 265 gph).
