Let me start by saying, this little square feeding dish is a game-changer for some, but might leave others scratching their heads. I've been using it in my 20-gallon shrimp tank for about a month now, and here's the real tea.
The clear acrylic material is indeed high quality - I can easily monitor food levels without disturbing my skittish cherry shrimp. The transparency helps me track how much they're eating, which is crucial for maintaining water quality.
That suction cup? Surprisingly strong when it works properly. In my setup with smooth glass walls, it holds like a champ. But I've heard horror stories from friends with textured tanks where it just won't stick - seems to be a common complaint.
Here's where things get interesting: My blind betta absolutely loves this thing! Like one reviewer mentioned, it creates a consistent feeding spot that he can reliably find. But for my active community tank? Food just gets swept away by the current unless I weigh it down with a small rock.
The square design is perfect for corner placement in bare-bottom tanks (major plus!), but it does take up significant real estate in smaller setups. My shrimp took about two weeks to consistently use it - patience is key here.
Word to the wise: This isn't meant for holding plants or heavy items. Stick to its intended purpose as a feeding dish, and you'll likely have better results. Also, inspect yours upon arrival - some units apparently arrive damaged.
Final verdict? If you've got bottom feeders or visually impaired fish that need consistency, this could be your solution. But if you're dealing with strong currents or expecting miracle performance, you might want to look elsewhere or be prepared to modify your setup.
