That bm doser can suck mysis through it??
That seems like a ton of liquid food would love to see his display and info on his system

Ingenious!

I was thinking its a good alternative for when away for a few days, not sure but in the video it does show it feeding mysis

Looks nice but feeding Mysis. They is no way that that hose will not get clogged. Size of mysis are pretty big..

 

[MikeC]

Ya then again I'm thinking if I'm going away for a few days my fish can eat pellets and if I'm going away for longer then someone will be taking care of the tank

 

[tunicata]

anyone actually set this up or know someone who has??
I'm wondering about:

BM Doser longevity after living in a fridge
Size of food that works/doesn't work
Other things to watch out for i.e. how long does food sit in the tube OUTSIDE of the fridge

Not really frozen food is it, but refrigerated. The problem is you'd need to flush out the line between each feeding as food would rot between the fridge and the tank.

meangreeneyes did something like this a few yrs ago.

If im not mistaking the guy actually drilled the fridge in order to pass some pvc/runing water thru the inside of the fridge making the fish food never leaving the fridge. That way it shouldnt rot.

this guy uses the back flow option in the DOS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkmuvTREK6k&feature=youtu.be
