What do people do??

Feeling manually with return pump and powerhead on as when im out all day I will need a automatic fish feeder.

I know Im able to set the powerhead to feed mode for 5 or 10 minutes or whatever I want but with the constant flow from the return they get blown around the tank and well not all getting eaten.

Only have 2 clowns for now and handful of snails. Should I purchase a floating ring or a tube for the pellets? Will get a eheim fish feeder.

Unfortunately no apex unit to do feed mode of pump's or anything of that sort.

Help is needed. Fortunately my 4 days old fish are feeding only feed 2 or 3 pellet at a timw and sometimes they get 1 sometimes 3 and other times 0 leaving food sinking to the bottom.

If your problem is roting food at the bottom of your tank the. I'd recommend some inverts to clean up the mess.

As long as the food isn't getting sucked into a filter or sump right away I think your clowns will get the hang of it

Currently have 5 trochus snails. What others you recommend?
