EHEIM
Everyday Fish Feeder
A programmable automatic dispenser that drops a fixed portion on a set schedule, the fix for both accidental overfeeding and a tank left in someone else's hands while you are away.

Our take
A fish rushing the glass reads as hunger, and the easiest way to overfeed a tank is to trust that signal every time it happens. This unit holds a hopper of flake or pellet food and drops a fixed, pre-set portion on a timer, once, twice or several times a day, so the amount going in is decided in advance rather than in the moment a fish puts on a show. It is just as useful for the ordinary case of a well-meaning house-sitter or family member who feeds a full pinch because the fish look eager, the single most common way a tank gets overfed while an owner is away.
