Hi, I have just three clown loaches in a 60 litre juwell tank. I'm away on
holiday next month and need an automatic fish feeder to cover 14 days.

Can anyone recommend one and who to buy from on-line (I'll check my local
shop first, of course!).

Thanks

Nick

Do you have plants in? They'll probably be ok for 14 days if you do. I have
auto feeders for my tanks for when I'm away 3 or 4 weeks but to be honest, I
invariably get back and find they've clogged up. Plus if you're feeding your
clowns plec wafers or granules, they don't drop very well from the feeders.
In fact plec wafers won't drop at all. If your tank is well established and
planted and you give them a reasonable feed before you leave they should
manage to find enough to scavenge on.

Thanks for the advice. I ended up giving my spare keys to a friend who uses
my parking space. Problem solved, and a lot easier than a blocked up feeder!
