Good morning! What autofeeders are you guys loving for tiny pellets? I've added some Hikari Marine-S to my feeding routine for the sake of my tiny-mouthed Allen's damsel, but even on the narrowest setting the opening of my current autofeeder is too large and it dumps half the drum in one go. I'd prefer a simple battery-powered programmable autofeeder over a fancy Apex compatible one. Thanks!

Put a tape on the opening,
I had TDO small type so I kept the feeder single drum spin and put slider to narrowest I could for pellets go fallout out without issue and then put painters tape to cut the slit into half. You can just it to how much you want.

Another votes for the ehiem. I have two from buying tank shutdowns and they are reliable and incredibly simple. I use one for pellets on my 225.
