Specs: Dimensions: Main Body - 12" Tall x 5 5/8" Wide x 6 5/8" Long Weight: 1000Grams/1Kilo Stand: 14" when planted in ground Feeding Guidelines: The number of fish, their size, the season and the water temperature of your pond determine the amount of feed needed to keep your fish healthy. In general, the following guidelines can be used as a "Rule of Thumb": Winter (water temp less than 50'F): No feeding Late Fall/Early Spring: One feeding per day Spring: Two feedings per day Summer: Two to Four feedings per day Only feed as much food your fish are able to finish within 5 minutes. Remove any uneaten food within an hour. Feeder Amounts: A Single feeding equals +/-15 Grams (pellets, chunks, flakes, powder, etc). This feeder can be programmed to dispense as little as 15 grams (1 feeding) or up to 120 grams (double feedings, 4 times per day). There is no hard and fast rule for how much each fish eats, but be mindful that this unit may not be large enough to feed all of your fish during the summer if you have many fish. A second unit would be ideal for such times. International Shipping: Shipping via USPS Global Priority Mail is $23.00 USD to Canada and $45.00 for the rest of the world.
