My cat broke the old one, so I bought a new one and relocated it in the sump.

Anyway, is it dispensing too much food for 5 fish?
1 midas, 1 clown, 1 firefish and 2 antenna goby.

I feed once at 10 A.M and then frozen food at 3pm when I get home.
Its dispensing Vitalis Platinum Marine Pellets.

Is there anybody in the sump to eat the pellets? Or are you just trying to boost Nitrate? If the latter, just test and adjust.


Not trying to boost Nitrate since they ALL get sucked up by my return pump. My reactor keeps the water moving a lot in this section so nothing sits at the bottom.

Because of the lid, I have nowhere to put my auto feeder and the last one fell in the water with the batteries for a day until I got home.

Most feeders have drums which allow you to set amount fed
