Automatic feeders offer a great way to feed your aquarium fish whether you're home or away on vacation. Even with the use of automatic fish feeders, the first step to avoiding overfeeding is to understand how easy it is to do, and how harmful it can be. This knowledge provides motivation to develop good habits when it comes to feeding aquarium fish. Try to incorporate the following tips to prevent overfeeding:

Feed on a schedule - Most tank inhabitants will do well if fed twice daily. If possible, more frequent and smaller feedings are preferred. In the wild, most fish do not eat large "meals" as we do, but are foraging and "nibbling" throughout the day.

Feed the proper amount - The best way to determine how much to feed your fish is to observe them at periodic intervals while they feed. Add small amounts of food at a time (e.g., 3 flakes per fish). If all the food has been eaten within several minutes, feed a small amount more. The general rule of thumb is to only feed them as much as they can eat within 4-5 minutes. Anything not eaten after 5 minutes will likely never be eaten. The Nutrafin Max Feeding Ring offers a simple way to observe fish feeding AND to keep food from drifting away from hungry mouths.
