Anything in the works for an integrated dry food feeder? Looking to go full GHL with my next build and I'm wanting to give anthias and wrasse a try so I'm looking to program a feeder to dispense a little bit of dry food a couple times a day to supplement manual feedings.

APEX has one and I would guess it would work with the GHL. Every other one I have seen is battery operated and is independent. I have used the Hydor and the Ehiem. I am very curious if there is because I am more interested in the GHL for stability.

I have read reviews for the APEX and I think I will stick with the Eheim and time it with the pumps going off for 10 minutes. Have it drop anywhere from 1-5 minutes in and it should work fine.

One last question is ...
When complete the AC to Dc plug, how would this be controllable?
