Neptune Automatic Feeding System
2-10 days
Stay-dry system prevents caking and clumping A common issue for most aquarium autofeeders is moisture getting into the food, making it clump or cake and clogging up.
The AFS has a motorized food delivery system that automatically extends and retracts into the housing for each feeding. And, the food container has a built-in gasket that seals out all moisture once it is retracted.
Pretty cool, huh!? Build complex feeding routines with the Apex and the AFS Since your AFS is part of the Apex ecosystem, you can build automated feeding routines that really do all the work for you.
Imagine kicking off a symphony of operations on a timed schedule, like this: Turn off skimmer Turn off return pump(s) Set VorTech pumps to Tidal Surge Dim LED lights to 40% Wait 5 minutes AFS feed cycle x 2 Wait 10 minutes Turn on return pump(s) Wait 10 minutes Turn on skimmer Turn LED lights back to normal Daisy-chain multiple AFS together
The AFS connects to your Apex using a standard AquaBus cable. And, since their are two AquaBus connectors on the AFS, you can daisy-chain multiple feeders together. This is the perfect solution if you are going to be away from your tank for an extended period of time and need the extra capacity, or if you wanted to feed two different types of food. Features of the Automatic Feeding System – AFS: Feeds pellet or flake food in varying amounts Apex can be set so that the AFS will feed from one time to as many times as you like throughout the day Connects via the Apex AquaBus “Stay-dry” system has a sealed food container that extends and retracts for each feeding. This keeps food dry and prevents clumping.
The lowest setting feeds just a few grains of pellet food so multiple small feedings are possible Allows for optimal feeding — small amounts many times a day Feedings can be combined with other operations such as powering off return pumps, skimmer, etc. and then automatically turning them back on after a set amount of time. Adjustable mounting clip extends up to two inches (or velcro can be used) so it will work in almost every aquarium configuration. Includes 15′ AquaBus Cable
Compatible with the Apex, Apex Lite, and Apex Jr. AquaControllers.
