ReefWeeds Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 That is pretty cool! First I've seen it. Thanks for posting. Link to comment
ajmckay Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Very cool. Sometimes I just browse kickstarter for cool stuff. Sometimes lame stuff also. I have the eheim feeder and it's a pain to set it for tiny pellets. It's sort of jammed in-between closed and the first notch. I'm sure it drops unreliably so I have it set to turn a few times per day. Doesn't look like you can do that with this one but if it's more reliable at dropping a consistent amount of food then that's okay IMO. *Edit - it DOES feed multiple times per day!! Even better! On a side note it's gone from $500 pledged to $700 pledged since this morning. Link to comment
Astinus Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 That is pretty cool! First I've seen it. Thanks for posting. +1 Totally Agree I might get 1 when it becomes available. Link to comment
Ibuyen Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 why is the shipping and handling so much? $10 per feeder is a little crazy for something that is under a few ounces. I was willing to back this up till i saw shipping. Link to comment
ManGups Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 That stuff is expensive too .. 99 bucks. I can get an AFS for that .. But sweet product no doubt ...!! Link to comment

jamescstein Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 $15 would be a steal. $25.. still not bad if it does what it says. Link to comment
ManGups Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 $99 was for ten of them, though? Misread ... 15 for one Link to comment
jimmyree Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 "The ingenuity of the Fin Feeder’s design is that it re-purposes an old-school style quartz clock movement to create a small and reliable automatic feeder that is also light on the wallet." You know that cheap WalMart wall clock we have all owned at least once in our lives, the one where the hands get stuck sometimes and just sit there twitching back and forth, turning a hand that's as light as a feather.
