The hardest part for us was positioning the feeder where it could dispense in the pond, and be safe from the raccoons and other animals that sneak into our backyard from the woods behind our fence. Thankfully several folks have shared their solutions on Amazon, and I say "thank you" for sharing your ideas. We liked the bucket idea to protect the feeder from sun, rain, and pests. We found that our cat litter buckets worked perfectly, and it has a handle to hang it by. We just happened to have a pole from an unused bug-zapper that has worked well for us so far. We like this setup so well we may use this full time instead of just when we go on vacation. I would like to find a way to have more flexibility in positioning it over the pond, but that may take a little more work.
After using this a while we have discovered that ours isn't lasting quite a week on only 1 feeding per day on the lowest setting. Not sure why, but it may be the raccoons. I have seen them sticking their little paws up the spout I assume to pull out more fish food. We were gone a week and it was empty when we returned. Guess we will need to put it out of reach of the raccoons or find a mesh to put over the spout that will keep their paws out. We still like it, but needs more work.

Directions on setup were good just a little bit complicated initially on how to program.
Hopper is big takes lots of koi pellets (which feed very good thru the feed tube).
Just set this up and initial automatic feeding the next day worked day worked great. Time will tell...
Regular 5 gallon bucket will fit over the feeder after cutting out a slot for the feed tube. I think maybe the patio pavers coupled with screwing down the unit on wood planks (only provided 2 screw slots in the front (2 add'l screw slots in the backside of the feeder would have been even nicer) "should" work fine.
With the 5 gallon bucket to keep the rain off and the unit screwed down on wood with additional paver weights on the sides.... maybe we have a shot with this thing!
As this is temporary, while away, not real concerned about the looks ;-). Just needs to do its job!
Bought two of these.... one for a 1,200 gallon pond and another for a 400 gallon pond.... With bucket protecting from varmits...... Worked great for about 2 weeks.... went on vacation and within two days each were visited by raccons.... nozzle was torn off of both feeders causing most all of the food spilling into the ponds..... lost 3 15 year old koi due to food dumps...... NOT recommended now.... tossed out and purchased the Hygger Automatic Pond Fish Feeder.... will see how this one does this summer....
BTW, I knew the nozzles did not connect firmly in either case so used silicon glue to hold.... did not work either....

I like that is runs on C cell batteries. The rechargeable feeders work for a while and then they quit charging. Finally I have found one that works in the Closer Pet brand. Thanks,

I am guessing as I haven't measured specifically but I'd say it holds about 2 gallon sized pails of food. That is the equivalent of 2 of the Reptomin 2 lb size of food pellets for turtles, which I also buy on Amazon.
It was easy to install, assemble and set up, instructions no problem to follow were clear and simple. Setting meal times was easy to accomplish, with the ability to set 3 feedings per day. The trick is to get the meal SIZE correct. I initially only went through the procedure once but after a week realized it was feeding far more than required so I re-did it this time using a lower setting. I think the problem was that initially the auger isn't full so first result was skewed as the auger remains full after it starts so would of course release more food as a result. I recommend going through the meal size setup up to 5 times to get it accurate. Also has manual feed and an off setting, nice.
I have had this for a few months and it works flawlessly. Only drawback is battery changes - instructions say must be changed within 60 seconds or all settings are lost. That might be a challenge to do in 60 seconds...haven't had to yet so we'll see!
The feeder must be secured, in my case because it was in the basement and would be undisturbed by weather or wildlife outdoors I didn't think it was necessary until I realized any movement can cause food to fall out of the chute as the chute & auger remain full at all times. My turtles are quite active so bumping up against the sides of their tub or jumping off the basking dock caused enough movement to release food they didn't need. I zip-strapped it securely and tightly to a shelf across the top of the tub to prevent movement.
Very happy with this purchase, very versatile and inexpensive compared to others I looked at.

There are 3 daily food settings which you can set to suit your own needs, either once, twice or three times a day at times set by you. You can also set the amount of food delivered on each occasion. These are set up by an incremental number scale. Do not make the mistake of assuming as I did that these numbers equate to a second each, they are some kind of unit. Test the feeder out on a bench first so the food is delivered into a tray and weigh it. 5 units equates to about 17g and 10 units equates to about 33g. The measurements over a period of time are fairly accurate. Once tested and set up you are good to go and set it on the pond edge.
All in all the product looks to be well made and does exactly what I asked it to do, feed my fish regularly whilst absent. I am pleased with what I have seen so far and have only not given it five stars as I want to test its reliability over an extended period and its claimed waterproof abilities. I will report back at a later date on this aspect.
Edit - after a prolonged soaking in heavy rain this morning it seems to have passed its waterproof test. The food in the hopper remained bone dry and all is working well.
Further update - I have has this running for about 3-4 weeks now and it delivers the right amount of food right on time every time. The clock seems to be very accurate so does the amount of food delivered. Really pleased with this product, it does exactly what is claimed. Excellent, upgraded to 5 stars.
Update 18/08/19 - Still working fine. It delivers the right amount of food on time every day. I should just add that I use Tetra Pond Variety Sticks and these do NOT jam the mechanism or become moist and block the spout.
Further update (22/10/2020 - still going strong and delivers the right amount of food at the right time.
