hello,

I’m looking to buy an auto feeder and would like to go with a Plank. However, i just received my custom Kraken lid. In hindsight… should have totally thought the feeder first. But that leads me to my question.

The feeder hole on the Kraken lid is 2.5 inches. Will the Plank tube fit through there? I can’t find a diameter anywhere.

Thanks in advanced!

This timing of this thread is perfect. I’m getting ready to order a Kraken lid and have the same question. I don’t have an auto feeder yet but considering the Plank. I did see where someone had them make a cutout. It’s a little late for you but I wonder if you can mail it back and have them cut a notch out? Hopefully someone will have some insight on it.

Edit: I’ve also seen where people have the auto feeder in the return pump chamber. This keeps the whole thing out of sight!
