FAQs How does the automatic fish feeder work? The KoiGrower Automatic Solar Fish Feeder uses a hopper to broadcast fish food up to six times daily. Customize your fish feeding schedule and amount with the easy-to-use programmable settings and place it in a sunny spot near your pond to charge the onboard battery. No sunshine? No worries! Plug it in with the included AC adapter to charge it during overcast weather. What type of food should I use in this fish feeder? We recommend using only 3-10mm diameter pellets in the fish food dispenser to prevent clogging and ensure accurate portioning. Do not use flaked, powdered, or stick food. How much fish food can the KoiGrower hold? The hopper can hold up to five pounds of koi pellets. We recommend only filling it with enough fish food to last about two weeks to preserve quality and freshness. The translucent walls make it easy to gauge the food level at a glance and plan refills in advance. How long will the fish food last for one hopper full? Food consumption will depend on your fish population, the frequency of feeding, and the quantity of food distributed during each feeding session. How often should the desiccant be replaced? Replace moisture lock desiccant packets every one to two weeks or whenever you refill the feed bucket. Can I still hand-feed my fish? You can still hand-feed your fish anytime to experience the fun of bonding. Just ensure you don’t overfeed, and consider reducing the number of automatic feeding sessions if you plan to hand-feed daily.
