I bought an eheim automatic feeder last week, I opened it up and followed the directions or so I thought. I've been working for the past week 12 hours a day so I don't get home till close to eight. I'd get home and see everyone and walk into my sons room to see how the fish are doing. Every time I would walk in there, they would start hovering around the top of the tank like they were starving. So I would go ahead and push the button and feed them. So today was the first time I've been home early enough to see when it goes off and feeds. So I waited. And waited. And waited. Nothing. Reset the feed time and nothing. Pulled out the instructions and seen that very very important step of turning on the feed time. So feeder 1 Me 0

Lol....nice, You know the fish were probably cracking jokes at you too. Haha, well at least nobody died did they. And you were home to catch the problem rather then gone for a couple months.5 gal baby hecqui grow out

At least there were no witnesses (except us). I once was trying to use a bone saw in the ER and the patient's dad pointed out to me that it wasn't plugged in.

I did the same thing with my timer for my automatic misting system for my terrarium. I took a few days before I realized the water level in the reservoir wasn't dropping.Comment

Speaking of ehiem feeders! Ill be leaving for school so I got one and or the past month I haven't been able to find a good place to put it without half of it spilling on the floor or on the canopy and then turning to goop so I just had an aha moment and put it on top of my hob filter I felt like such a jackass lmao xDComment

I think i feel worse now after reading where you put yours, I didn't think about that spot. My wifes small tank has the same problem, it dumps about 3/4 in the tank the other 1/4 on the counter top. I'll have to move it to the top on the filter when I get home...Originally posted by CharlesTheG View PostComment
