Safe to use desiccant packet in auto feeder?

[RagnarReef]

Wondering if anyone using desiccant packets in auto feeder to try and eliminate chances of pellets/flakes from clumping together? Thoughts on if this it is safe to do so? Maybe risk outweighs benefit???

It is probably safe but if I were worried I would rather just get an auto feeder that doesn't have this problem. The ones that seal like the Oase and AFS are pretty good and the ones with the airline connection like the Hydor are excellent.
