The Plank Automatic Feeder v3.6
The Plank isn’t your average autofeeder.
It’s an automatic micro-feeding powerhouse.
Many reef fish and corals evolved to capture prey from the water column throughout the day. With this in mind, we meticulously designed and hand-built the Plank Autofeeder so your beloved fish and corals can thrive on micro-fed small amounts of freeze-dried plankton, rotifers, calanoid copepods, mysis, and Euphausia shrimp.
- Excellent alternative to live and frozen food options
- Freeze-dried food is nutritional and preservative-free
- Easy-to-service design for consistent cleaning
- Powered mixing motor and rotating auger design
- Designed, sourced, and hand-crafted in America
Key Features & Benefits
The Plank automatic feeder represents years of product ingenuity and a commitment to care for our most delicate and active aquarium inhabitants. The Plank is designed to enable frequent micro-feeding of the highest quality marine proteins available. Our Reef Jerky contains freeze-dried plankton, tiny rotifers, calanoid copepods, and mysis and Euphrasia sp. shrimp. All too often freeze-dried or floating pellets tend to float too long (even with a feeding ring) and find their way down the overflow and into our sumps. By incorporating a powered mixing pump at the base of the mixing tube, the pump helps hydrate the food resulting in a nearly continuous supply of freshly hydrated Reef Jerky in the water column.
Consistent Dosage & Limitless Frequency
The Plank will dispense the same amount of food every time regardless of how many times a day you decide to mico-feed your reef. Ensuring small high-energy fish (such as anthias, wrasses, and other juvenile fish) get regular feedings to support their activity levels, rapid growth, and digestion.
Easy-to-service Design
The Plank uses a precise auger-driven (corkscrew) mechanism inside the plank to dispense micrograms of freeze-dried food at a time. It is not only a more accurate design, it is also easy to service when cleaning is needed.
Flexible Setup Integration
The Plank Platform fits a variety of tank setups with up to a 2.5" brace. If your tank has an Euro brace, please look at the Euro brace option.
Designed to integrate into aquarium controllers, a ubiquitous digital timer, or a wifi-enabled smartphone-controlled power adapter. Set the timer to run for as many seconds (or minutes) needed for continuous feeding.
Plank v3.6 Refinements
Improved Circulation Capabilities
Working with the engineers at Sicce, the Sicce Nano now rotates more smoothly inside the mixing tube. In addition, the output nozzle has been slimmed and profiled to optimize the internal flow, and the output was optimized to provide efficient drainage for a cleaner feeding chamber and more consistent hydration of Reef Jerky.
Note: Pump is designed to run 24/7.
Better Valve Operation
With dual haptic feedback of positive locking notches and numerically ribbed indicators, The Plank 3.6 makes it easier to dial in the flow rate for proper soak and hydration times. It is now possible to determine valve position and make repeatable changes all while still mounted and running.
Easier Assembly
The plug-and-play gear assembly results in a better setup experience.
Improved Surface Finish
We upgraded our printing equipment and materials as 3D printing technology has evolved for a better-looking and stronger Plank v3.6.
