I've been using the Zhuohai Fish Feeding Ring for my betta tank, and it's honestly transformed feeding time. No more chasing floating pellets across the water surface or watching food get sucked into the filter. The ring keeps everything contained in one spot, and my betta quickly learned where breakfast is served.
The floating design is clever—it adjusts with water level changes, which is great for tanks with evaporation fluctuations. I did notice the suction cup isn't the strongest (mine popped off twice during water changes), but pressing it firmly against the glass for 30 seconds seems to do the trick. For long-term use, I might replace it with a heavier-duty suction cup.
What surprised me most was how it improved water quality. Before, uneaten food would sink and decay, but now cleanup is minimal. The black foam insert keeps it buoyant, though I did gently sand some slightly sharp edges (took 2 minutes with a nail file) as a precaution for my curious betta.
Pro tip: Occasionally press the ring underwater to release surface film buildup. My fish now associates the ring with mealtime—he swims through it like a little hoop during training sessions! While not perfect (the arm feels delicate), at this price point, it solves more problems than it creates for floating food feeders.
