Anyone using automatic feeders for flakes/pellets?

[moppy]

If so, which brand and would you recommend buying one?

I just want to be able to drop flakes and or pellets into the tank a couple of times a day in small amounts.

Still going to feed frozen once a day after work.

I've been using a Rena feeder for about 4years and would never go back to manual feeding. I set it up initially for a holiday but never took it off. I've found my fish healthy, water quality higher and everything is on a standard schedule that I think things like.

I've been using an eheim auto feeder for pellets. Works for flakes too tho. I don't know of any that will dispense non dry foods.

I use a coast to coast as well. And reef nutrition sinking pellets don't go over.

Are there any auto feeders that can be activated by an external controller or timer?

I like the Fish Mate F14 feeders. They store 14 feedings and will feed 1-5 feedings per day. They are not a barrel feeder so they don't dump the whole feeding in at once, it slowly gets fed. The best part is you can feed anything from 1 single pellet/flake per meal or up to almost a tsp (I should measure).
