It works great as a feeding stick but as was stated the hole is to small to liquid feed anything larger than baby brine.

I got a turkey baster at the dollar store and stuck a length of tubing on the end of it. The only problem is the tubing is not perfectly stiff and curves a bit. Sometimes that works in your favour when going around corners though.

I wouldn't say it's useless at all, just cut part of the tip off. I did and can now use it to drop mysis into a dish at the bottom of the tank for seahorses. It is too small for silversides, but still I wouldn't say it is useless.

Yup 100% agree. I even trimmed the end still useless fish crap in my books

I totally agree. I think using a long acrylic rod with good diameter and use turkey baster to put food on the top is best.
