Automated Feeding

[newbreefer316]

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?

You time the rotation of ON time, then program a timer to control the socket/outlet.
