AFS Automatic Feeding System – Neptune Apex Systems

Product details

AFS Automatic Feeding System – Neptune Apex Systems is an automatic aquarium feeder designed to work with Neptune Systems Apex controllers. It helps you feed smaller amounts more often, which can support more consistent feeding schedules for fish and corals while reducing the risk of overfeeding—especially when you’re away. The system can also be tied into monitoring you may already use on your Apex, such as ORP, to help prevent feedings if conditions fall outside your set threshold.

Features:

• Dispenses pellet or flake foods in varying amounts you can program with the Apex
• Supports feeding from one time up to multiple times throughout the day for smaller, more frequent feedings
• Connects to the Apex using the AquaBus “Stay Dry” approach, using a sealed food container that extends and retracts for each feeding
• Helps reduce clumping and clogging by keeping food dry within the retracted, sealed container
• Provides very small feed outputs (lowest setting is designed for just a few grains of pellet food) to enable multiple micro-feedings
• Can combine feeding with other Apex-controlled actions (such as powering return pumps/skimmer off and back on) after set time intervals
• Can optionally use ORP-based logic by preventing feedings when ORP is too low, helping reduce further tank water pollution
• Multiple feeders can be daisy-chained together for greater total feeding or to dispense two different food types

Specifications:

• Power transformer included: 110V or 220V (per included transformer)
• AquaBus cable included: 10′ AquaBus-mini cable
