The aF4 Auto Frozen Fish Food Feeder

Sashaka · Nov 25, 2019

If you feed frozen food by broadcast feeding or if you need a babysitter to feed your tank when you go out of town, here is a great solution...but only if the goal for funding is met in the next 8 days! I've pledged and hope you will too. Check it out. :

I agree. I pledged, and I hope to see this make it. An auto feeder that feeds frozen cubes for under $300 if you pledge.

Backed it as well, this could be a significant game changer for keeping livestock that requires frequent feeding. Being able to feed frozen food, which is much better for our livestock than dry food 2-4 times a day could open up options to a lot of people and make our existing live stock that have managed to survive on fewer feedings much healthier. For me personally it is going to make care of my seahorses much better. Fish like Wrasse's and Anthias will benefit a lot too and honestly most fish are used to grazing over the course of the day, several smaller feedings would be much better for all of our live stock, whether they require frequent feeding or not.

If it works, I’d be inclined to feed with this exclusively. I feel like I feed too mich at one time due to the fact that I don’t know when i will be around for the next feeding

I pledged, i mainly feed frozen food, and having the XL model i will be able to feed on both ends of my 8 ft tank. They still need 2800 to fund. Actually you can pledge 219 for one and thats not a bad price for frozen fish feeder!

For folks who have already backed the project I’m pretty sure they are still looking for BETA testers

I looked at it and was interested, but couldn’t find a lot of details about how it worked, how long it lasted, how much it feeds, controllability options, etc.

It uses a thermo-electric chiller to keep the frozen food frozen inside the carousel which then rotates and drops the frozen cube into the tank based on when you want to feed. The carousels are changeable to account for the amount of frozen and how much you want to feed. As long as the chiller has power and the heat sink works it will keep the food frozen forever. It has it's own programmable controller. It looks like they have added the ability to have a master slave relationship to allow a 2nd feeder to be added.

If you click on the picture in my original post, it will take you to the their site. Once there, click on the "updates" tab and then click on the individual updates to read more and see their videos. This product will not make it to people's tanks or production unless it manages to be funded before the deadline date listed on the site. So if people like the product, they must take the plunge and pledge. They need 40, 000 and are still short by a few thousand dollars with only 7 days left.
