Eheim 3581 Everyday Fish Feeder

Today's aquariums can be mostly separated into three categories: high-tech, average, and low-tech. Some products fit nicely into a low-tech setup, and others are loaded with features and are perfect for aquarium techies. However, finding a product that is fitting for the average is aquarium is difficult, and finding a product suitable for all types of aquariums is nearly impossible. The Eheim 3581 Everyday Fish Feeder is one of very few products that break the barrier.

This product was awarded the 2009 Best Product award.

Lifegard Automatic Fish Feeder

Bring a commercial grade aquarium feeder to your home aquarium with the Lifegard Automatic Fish Feeder with Expansion Hopper. Not only is the automatic feeder compatible with pellet and flake food, but it will also dispense dry medication as well. The feeder has fourteen available bins, and with the expansion hopper, the feeder will dispense food for up to four months, although that puts your food at risk of spoiling. The automatic feeder is built with those with high demands in mind, and is built to last. 

Penn-Plax Daily Double II

If you are looking for an absolutely straight forward device to feed your fish on a budget, the Penn Plax Daily Double II will feed your fish crushed flake or granular food twice daily. The unit works best on tanks 20 gallons or less, otherwise you will run in to trouble if you want to mount the unit on the side of the aquarium glass. The feed drum is of poor design; you must be careful that the drop tube remains open and food is near the scoop end otherwise it will not feed your fish. The Penn Plax Daily Double is best suited for owners of small aquariums without strict feeding needs.

Eheim 3582 Twin

Aquariums are becoming more and more popular these days, and as a result, the surrounding technology begins to evolve. The Eheim 3582 Twin automatic feeder is a perfect example.

Fish Mate F14

The F14 by Fish Mate is a feeder that is a little different from the rest. It is one of few models available today in the wheel style, and because of the lack of a bulky rotating drum, it has one advantage above all other models on the market today: it has the capability to fit beneath a light fixture above a condensation panel. Unlike other wheel style feeders, the F14 offers more control over feeding time. It is battery operated, which also adds to its compact design. The feeder has an airline hookup - which is absolutely necessary if your aquarium evaporates quickly. The feeder is an odd shape, like a square sided pancake, due to its low center of gravity. If you are not in need of a feeder in an area with low clearance, this feeder may not be to your liking.

Not only is the automatic feeder compatible with pellet and flake food, but it will also dispense dry medication as well.

Penn-Plax Daily Double Deluxe

The Penn Plax Daily Double Deluxe is built for the simple aquarium, or stock which needs only a simple diet. The feeder has an airline hookup for the best system for beating humidity currently available today - forced air from an air pump. The advertising in some stores can mislead buyers, as some advertise the product as "programmable", which this feeder is not. At around $50 USD, the feeder is priced about $10 USD more than our 2009 Best Product, the Eheim 3581. However, if simplicity is your game, this could be the feeder for you.
