Juwel Automatic Feeder

The Juwel Automatic Feeder dispenses food on a timetable, so your fish keep getting regular meals when you are busy or away for a few days. It can be used on any aquarium, and with the matching mounting support it attaches quickly to Juwel tanks. You can programme two feeding cycles a day with a six-hour gap between them, and the adjustable food drum holds enough for up to 60 feeds. Pellet foods work best in it, and batteries are supplied so it is ready to set up.

Key features of the Juwel Automatic Feeder

• Two feeds per day
• Six-hour feeding interval
• Up to 60 feeds per fill
• Adjustable food drum
• Air-pump ventilation option

Before you go away

Run the feeder for a week or two while you are still at home, so you can check the portion size, the timing and that the food drops cleanly into the water. Fill it with dry pellets or granules, since the drum is designed around pelleted food. Position it over open water away from the filter intake, so food is not pulled away before the fish reach it. The batteries are supplied with the feeder, but fit fresh ones before a long trip and keep the lid closed to protect the food.

Good to know

In very humid rooms you can connect an ordinary air pump to ventilate the drum, which helps stop the food from clumping.
