Description

This versatile feeder may be mounted on the aquarium hood or on the Glass edge of the aquarium with the brackets provided. The fish mate F14 is suitable for Feeding most popular types of tropical and cold water fish foods. With fourteen individual meal portions, it is possible to offer your fish a varied diet while you are away. Compact and reliable, the fish mate F14 is the ideal solution for Feeding your aquarium fish while you are at work or on holiday. Fish nutritionists recommend that you feed your fish several small meals a day rather than one large one and the F14 facilitates this. In humid conditions it is recommended that a granular or pelleted type food be used rather than flake. There is also the clever option to attach an airline from a small aquarium air pump (not included) if required, this will blow dry air through the feeder to prevent the food from going stale and clogging. Suitable for small to medium sized aquariums (up to 40 Gallons), for larger or heavily stocked tanks use more than one feeder. Not suitable for outdoor ponds. Cleaning : We normally recommend that you remove the rotor after 14 days continuous use and dust off any remaining food fragments from underneath the rotor and from its seating face on the body. In practice, you may find this unnecessary due to the patented self-cleaning action of the rotor but much will depend on the type of food being used.

    • Finicky but does the job and allows for good feeding flexibility
Any review of this product needs to start with how it works which may not be readily apparent from the photos and description. The feeder is composed of a plastic ring divided into 14 equally sized compartments; the sections partition the food into the 14 different feedings. The timer in the middle moves one revolution in 24 hours and has spots to place 4 pegs; as these pegs near the top (12 o'clock) position, they engage with inside of the ring and over the course of about 2 hours push the ring around 1/14th of a revolution. This in turn pushes the compartment at 6 o clock over the opening and any food will fall into the water below. This is a rather simple mechanism but leads to some quirks that are the focus of this review. The first issue with this design is that the ring simply lays inside the feeder and isn't held very tightly. which means that the ring can rotate out of position easily. The design also means that if there is any food under the ring, it can lift it up and it will "miss" food; this practically means that you must put it down empty and then fill the compartments; if you need to pick the ring up for any reason you basically have to start over filling it. The documentation also states that it feeds over the course of two hours; while it might take two hours for the compartment to fully move over the hole, in practice the food gets piled up against the left wall of the compartment as it is pushed around in its path and ends up basically getting mostly dumped in at the end of the two hours. I am using Hikari micro pellets and loach wafers, and I would say if I have it set to feed at 6, most of the food will get dropped into the tank between about 7:30 and 8. It will also get pushed in, I haven't experienced where the food doesn't get dropped in, it just isn't as spread out in time as the paperwork would make it seem. Also, if you don't line the compartments up perfectly with the whole, you may get where it doesn't drop all of the food at say your 6am feeding; it will however push the remaining food in at the next set time. The other issue I have is that the times you can select are fairly inflexible; IIRC there are 6 possible feeding times; if you don't like then those are you can simply set the time on the feeder to compensate (for instance, if you don't want it to start at 6 but instead 7, set the time on the device an hour ahead). However, you cannot make the feedings closer together or spread out than what it is designed for. This isn't a huge huge issue but I would have liked more time options or one where I could set it any time I wanted. All of this being said, the feeder hasn't had problems with moisture which was my biggest fear; the pellets have stayed dry and I am not using the air tube option that the feeder has. It is fairly easy to load and to take on and off its mounting brackets, and when empty I can wipe it down to clean it. I also like that I can change what I am feeding the fish from day to day unlike other feeders; some days I include algae wafers for the snails and in others I put in some other foods that I don't give but a few times a week. I appreciate that I can load it on Sundays when I do water changes and don't have to worry about it; I do check it periodically just because that is how I am, but I really haven't needed to mess with it. I haven't had it long enough to check the battery life claim but I see no reason that it wouldn't last a long time; it is basically a wall clock mechanism and those seem to last a while. Overall I would recommend this feeder over the kind that rotate and dispense all the food; while it is a little fussy, I think that the more analog way this works is more reliable and I like the flexibility in food I can use. Overall it has been a good device and I'm glad we have it. ... show more

    • OK
I don't love that it takes about two hrs for the food to be pushed out for each meal, & it would be nice to have more precise time options besides just every three hrs. I used flake food/freeze-dried/pellets; a lot of flake food gets stuck to the sides (not even due to moisture) so it was really hard to guess how much food would be enough. There are also cracks underneath the center timing piece that are difficult to clean food out from underneath. Overall, it serves it's purpose, but not without flaws ... show more

    • Really nice feeder. A few tips, though..
I got this feeder to use for going on vacation. I have four aquariums so I needed a price point that was affordable enough to be able to get 4 of them and this one was on sale, so I ended up paying a lot less than I would have normally. I'm glad I got this thing ahead of time before leaving it unattended. It's not too complicated to use, but it definitely takes a bit to adjust it to work how you want it. I read other reviews on this before buying too, so I kind of knew what to expect. The slow feeding thing is not an issue for me. Some people seem concerned by it but as long as my fish get fed, I'm happy. However, the biggest issue this thing has is moisture building up inside causing the food to mold and/or stick to the feeder. Apparently you can hook it up to an air pump to reduce moisture. However, I don't have an extra air pump and didn't really want to spend the money/outlet space to get yet another gadget for my setup. My alternative solution was to just leave the feeder lid open. It seems to help a lot more if part of your aquarium lid is exposed on the back, like the aquariums built for HOB filters are. I have had no issues with this method for my HOB filter tanks. My other two aquarium lids use sponge filters and are fully closed. Some moisture still collects in the tray above the water. However, it dries out again fast enough to prevent mold and usually doesn't stick. What I do is put a little extra food than I normally would feed in the trays because if some of it sticks or doesnt make it through, at least the fish will have had as much as they're used to. Feeding flake food by itself is pretty much useless for these lol. Even if there's no moisture, it just slips underneath the trays as it spins around. Something I'm experimenting with right now is putting the flake food on top of my snails' algea wafers. If you have snails or any fish that eat a larger pellet food, this seems to be a game changer. In conclusion, these are pretty good for vacation use. I'm not sure if I'll use them all the time, but it is pretty nice to not have to remember to feed every day. ... show more

    • Think about attachment before you buy
This worked for us while we were on vacation. The only issue was figuring out how to attach it. They come with these little clips for the side of the tank which works, but out tank lid doesnt have a hole in it and is a weird shape. It ended up working, we left the lid open. I dont think there was anything else we could have used for the purposed. But not a long term solution, only for vacations. ... show more
