Eheim has served me well for 2 years. https://www.eheim.com/en_GB/accessories/installation/feeding_fish_feeder

Was looking at the Apex one, but not sure if I want to plunk down $100 for one.

They don't have pricing..I like the twin feeder

Never seen the Twinfeeder, interesting concept. I just mixed both pellets and flakes into the same compartment. But I have to crunch down some of the flakes or it'll block the outlet of the feeder. If needed, consider making a feeding ring out of RODI tubing and position the outlet of the feeder over the ring. So the food doesn't rush into your overflow...

Good idea

I was just away for a week and used these two on my tanks:

Eheim: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002AQY8A/?tag=reefs04-20

LifeGuard: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007AA2R54/?tag=reefs04-20

Both worked well and accept the same pellet/flake food. The LifeGuard is easier to mount to the tank and I would recommend it over the Eheim if you have a rimless tank.
