With the EHEIM autofeeder+ we offer you the smart version of our (basic version) autofeeder with additional functions and advantages.
The EHEIM autofeeder+ is our intelligent automatic feeder with digital control via WLAN. All functions can be programmed and monitored via smartphone, tablet or PC/MAC. You can set both feeding times and quantities individually and generate a fasting day. There is protection against overfeeding and you will also receive an email message when the food in the drum is running low. In addition, synchronisation with other devices in our WiFi programme is also possible. For example, when linked to the EHEIM thermocontrol+e aquarium heater, you will be warned by email before feeding if the water temperature is too high and, when linked to the EHEIM professionel 5e external filter, the flow rate can be automatically reduced or increased for 10 minutes during feeding.
EHEIM autofeeder+ has a power supply unit so it is not battery operated like the standard autofeeder. Maximum safety and reliability are a matter of course and the feeder comes with a 3-year guarantee.

LIGHT
LOW: Place coral at the bottom of the tank. Depending on the type, coral may need to be placed off sand and therefore mounted on a ceramic disc of piece of rock.
MEDIUM: Place coral at mid-range of the tank. Best placed/glued on top of a rock scape at mid-range height.
HIGH: Place coral from mid range to just below water level. SPS coral are shallow growing so they require and are able to tolerate intense light.
FLOW
LOW: Most soft coral do well with a small, gentle pulse. There are certain corals that can even be placed in areas of indirect flow, meaning places aside a rock structure or set into a entrance to a cave style space.
MEDIUM: Many LPS types of coral prefer medium pulse current. Most Euphyllia or corals that have more tissue structure connected to their skeleton, don’t like to be in a high flow area like the direct flow of the wave pump.
HIGH: Similar to high light, SPS enjoy being in some heavy current. Most LPS and SPS that branch encrust or plate prefer high flow that simulates the top water waves.
SKILL
ENTRY: While some may say beginner level, "Entry" is a good term to be used when starting out in the world of corals and marine life. Prior to adding livestock, you want to ensure that your reef has the proper parameters including zero levels of ammonia and nitrite. Seeing traces of nitrate in your waters is a good sign - just keep them at a lower level of 2ppm to 10ppm. Maintaining correct temperature and salinity are a huge factor to stable parameters. Starting to monitor your PH, alkalinity, calcium and magnesium is a great habit to get into to keep a successful reef.
While some soft coral don’t require too much light, having a proper reef light that puts out the proper pars is very important. You'll also want to have a good amount of flow and protected rock areas, as placing corals in their happy spot is ideal for success.
