I use 1mm sinking pellets.
I feed 4 times a day. Each feed cycle is between 3 and 4 spins, so that's an average of about 14 rotations per day. The feeder can easily hold 3 weeks worth of food. Probably more, but I don't tend to fill it to capacilty. - Brad

I've been using an Eheim dual chamber feeder for better than 2 years, no problems. No experience with any others. Only minor issue I find is large flakes tend to dispense unreliably. They do eventually, just seem to get pushed back up into the hopper instead of making their way out. Pellets dispense easily. Runs on batteries, LCD display, battery level indicator, plenty of programming options. Up to 3 feedings per day per side. I built an acrylic bracket to hang on the side of my display.

I have 2 of the eheim single chamber auto feeders The one on my discus tank feeds 3 times aday and has been running for 2.5 years. I've only changed the batteries once in that time. You can set them up to feed up to 4 times a day, and 1 or 2 feedings per time (1 minute apart) Regardless make sure that you test what ever you buy out for a few cycles before you leave. (I didnt have mine set correctly for about a week and it wasnt feeding)
