It looks cool and modern but you know, I bet some will do that themselves. On vacation, they have auto feeding device for flake food already...

I had bad results with it. Others I know had good results. Mine didn't work (or I didn't set it up I should say right.) I ended up with eggs all through the tank.

I have one of those sitting in a fish supply box collecting dust. I have a friend that uses one and says it works great. Not sure if mine was messed up or what. Maybe user error.

I use this model hatchery from Aquatic Ecosystems:

Works great, easy fill with the valve at the bottom.
