The Plank automatic feeder has been in works for over thirteen years and the wait is finally over! This automatic feeder is specifically designed to dispense frequent microdoses to keep fish and corals on the hunt.
Many reef fish and most corals have evolved to continuously eat small prey items out of the water column. However, as aquarists, it is usually not feasible for us to administer a continuous, low-density supply of small, nutritious food items in our rapidly and heavily filtered reef aquaria.
Freeze-dried food is nutritionally complete, often even better than many frozen preparations. However, it has often been difficult to administer to the typical reef aquarium due to its tendency to float for a long time after being added to water. Even with a simple floating feeding ring, freeze-dried food particles usually find their way to the surface and into an overflow box, only to be filtered out before being consumed.
木板自动馈线通过合并一个动力的混合室来解决此问题，该室迫使大多数食物颗粒在被允许逃脱之前变得中性浮力。这导致水柱中几乎连续供应新鲜水合的浮游生物。
Many small high-energy reef fish such as anthias and wrasses, along with juveniles of basically every species, have low capacity, rapid digestive systems. Once or twice per day blasts of even the highest quality frozen food often isn’t enough for them. If the answer is continuous availability, the question becomes, how do we achieve this without sacrificing water quality by adding too much food?
木板使用一种精确的螺旋螺旋驱动的机制，该机制能够一次给冻干浮游生物的微克给定。没有复杂的控制器或WiFi可以设置，只需将计时器设置在自动馈线上，以便在您看到的合适的情况下运行多秒钟或分钟，然后让木板保持水族馆的连续喂食。
You’ll see your fish behave more as they would on a wild reef, a continuous feeding environment, having brighter colors and vigorous activity.
The Plant feeder is currently in Pre-Order with products shipping in 3-4 weeks. VisitAvast Marineto learn more.
