Since you can’t take your lovely betta fish with you, follow these simple tips on preparing your tank before leaving. Maintain Water Quality A downside to having the ability to precisely control how much your fish are being fed is that that it holds less food than the barrel type.

Sounds like a handy feature. I mean, no one wants their fish food to go soggy and clump together, right? The Intelli-Feed is your only choice if you want a plug-in automatic fish feeder.
