Archived from groups: rec>aquaria>freshwater>misc (more info?)

As I am a fish lover and will get a automatic feeder but love Chilids
or Oscars but thanks to some that it might not be feasible for me. I
return back once a year for around 1 month or less. Any good brands
for automatic feeders for a 135 to 150 gal aquarium ?

a local fish store employee???

for a 3 week stent, you might want to recruit and train someone... I'm not
sure an auto feeder unit can house that much food, or for that length of
time....

Umm, like I said, better to pay someone to do it for you. Measure the daily
food into individual ziploc bags. Doubt you could get a vacation block for a
month. DO NOT put in 4 x 1 week blocks.

I have a Eheim Feed-Air I bought for a one week vacation. It works so good
I use it all the time, even when I am home. It only works with flake food
though. If that's ok with your fish It will hold plenty for three weeks. It
is hard on batteries. I would start with good alkalines, not the cheep
batteries it comes with.
