JBL AutoFood BLACK, Black automatic feeder for aquarium fish

Product Information

The AutoFood remembers the time and feeding settings even when switched off, so you shouldn’t need to reprogram it every time you use it, and the display has an indicator to warn you if the batteries are reaching the end of their life. Energy source selectable: use built-in solar panel with rechargeable battery or connect directly to power source via 5mtr mains cable. With recessed grips for convenient handling.

Mount, programme feeding times and quantities (10 steps), fill with food and set throwing range to 0.5 or 1.0 m. Manual feeding possible If the tank has a wooden, piano top style hood and cover glasses the feeder can be placed in the hood, with one cover glass slightly open. You determine when and how much the JBL automatic feeder should feed. You can also ignore the set program at any time and start feeding manually. The selectable ejection width ensures that the slightly smaller or weaker pond fish also receive food. Can hold up to 25 litres of food. Water temperature (important for the type of food) is indicated on the digital display by the included temperature sensorThe feeder comes complete with the required 3 x AA batteries as well as a manufacturer’s three-year warranty. An automatic feeder for pond fish has many advantages: Your koi and other pond fish are reliably supplied with food when you are away on holiday or on weekend trips. You decide when and how much the JBL automatic feeder has to feed. But you can also ignore the set programme at any time and start feeding manually. The selectable throwing range ensures that even the slightly smaller or weaker pond fish are fed.

The exception is the Fishmate Automatic Fish Feeder, which can feed fish tanks for a maximum of 14 days due to the way it’s designed. You could also place different dry foods into each of its 14 compartments and alter the amount in each daily compartment too. It's long established and one of the best automatic fish feeders. What food is best for an automatic feeder? Accurately feeds your pond fish the amount of food you set, up to 24 times a day (e.g. for juvenile fish), reliably and independent of the electricity supply. For all JBL pond foods or others, up to 9 mm diameter. The water temperature sensor (included), which you can position in any water depth up to 3 m, shows you the water temperature digitally on the waterproof display. So you can always select the right food to suit the prevailing water temperature. The JBL ProPond food concept has been developed to take the season, water temperature, living conditions and size of the fish into account.

They can deliver a set amount of food at the same time each day, or even several times a day, keeping your fish just as well-fed as when you’re there to feed them yourself. Automatic feeders can feed once, twice, three or 4 times per day, depending on the make and model. If once a day is plenty then any feeder will do but if you want up to four feeds per day, make sure your prospective feeder can be programmed to do that.
