Operating principle and advantages of automatic fish feeders
Gadgets can automate the operation of a home artificial pond, reducing human participation to a minimum. He will only need to periodically fill the device’s hopper with food, monitor the health of the power supply and the absence of malfunctions in the operation of the device.
The operation of automatic fish feeders in an aquarium is based on adding dry or live fish food to the water in specified doses. The main element of the device is a drum dispenser, which dispenses a portion of feed in one revolution. After throwing out the next batch of feed, the drum compartment is again filled with mixture from the hopper.
Automatic feeders are equipped with a built-in programmer that sets the frequency of feeding. Timers are used for setting. Modern models of feeders have an LCD display that displays the current time and/or a countdown to the next feed release.
Among the advantages of automatic feeders are the following:
- flexible settings system that allows you to maximally adapt the device to your needs;
- the ability to provide night feeding - this function is relevant when breeding fry, which need to be fed every few hours;
- autonomous operation for a long time when the owner is away;
- preventing the issuance of too large portions of food, the excess of which will begin to spoil the quality of water;
- the presence of a special vibration system (optional in some models), which prevents the formation of lumps from the feed mixture in the water.
Some models have a “Fasting day” mode.
A few words about the configuration
Each model is equipped with a filter element, a lighting lamp, and a heater. Having purchased a Yuvel aquarium, you no longer have to purchase additional equipment to improve the functionality of the product.
If you open the package and take out the contents, you will most likely immediately notice the excellent quality of the materials. The lid is finished with plastic that is pleasant to the touch; the glass has well-processed ends, which are very pleasant to touch. The joining of parts is also at a high level. No additional adjustment is required. The elements are clearly placed in their place, so the installation of internal systems is not accompanied by any difficulties and does not take much time.
Each Yuvel aquarium is equipped with everything necessary for an aquarist
Inside the aquarium there is disassembled equipment, which is mounted after installing the product on the stand. Specifications for lighting and filter systems may vary depending on the model. The same applies to the characteristics of the heater.
Features of using automatic feeders
Like any other gadget, an automatic fish feeder in an aquarium - the device’s instructions indicate this - has some features that appear during its use. This device is loud enough to scare away the fish at first, and it takes several days for them to get used to the noise.
Some models do not have a soft insert in the fastening elements, which leads to the risk of scratching the glass or not securing the device tightly to the wall of the aquarium. The latter can cause a shift or fall of the entire structure into the water - its fastenings after a few days will be even more weakened by the vibration that occurs during operation. If the device falls into water, it will damage it, but will not harm the inhabitants. However, all these unpleasant properties are offset by the main advantage of the device - the ability to feed pets automatically according to a schedule.
Filter maintenance and care
In order for the filter system to last for a long time, you must adhere to certain rules . Cotton wool should be replaced at least once a week. If the fish are large, it is worth reducing the time interval, then less dirt will get into the filter tubes.
The carbon sponge is replaced every 3-4 weeks. You can perform this procedure more often if there are many fish in the aquarium or their sizes are large. When activated carbon is left in water for a long time, its toxic substances are again absorbed by the liquid. It is very important to change the carbon sponge in a timely manner so that dirt particles do not get into the water.
To keep the water in good condition, it is necessary to service the filter almost weekly.
To improve the quality of the liquid, it is necessary to change the anti-nitrate sponge every 6 weeks. This will minimize the amount of nutrients for lower plants.
As for replacing or cleaning blue filter sponges, such procedures are carried out every 3-6 months. Experts advise changing the filter media and sponge one at a time. In such environments, a small sediment is formed, which includes many nutrients that have a positive effect on the biological balance in the aquarium.

EasyFeed The JUWEL EasyFeed automatic feeder can be used for all aquariums.
