FIAP Pendulum Feeder

A fish-activated demand feeder that needs no power at all — fish nudge the pendulum under water and release their own feed, so delivery follows appetite rather than a clock. Handles pellets from 2 to 10 mm, with feed rate set by turning the discharge pipe. Containers hold 3, 10, 20, 40 or 60 kg, giving several days of feeding between refills.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right size?
Multiply your daily feed demand by the number of days you want between refills, then pick the container that holds it — 3, 10, 20, 40 or 60 kg. Then confirm your pellet is between 2 and 10 mm.
What pellet size will it handle?
Pellets from 2 to 10 mm.
Does it need power?
No. It is entirely mechanical — no current, no adaptor, no batteries and no timer. Fish touching the pendulum under water release the feed.
How is the feed rate set?
By mechanically turning the discharge pipe, which changes how much is released. The amount actually taken still depends on how actively the fish are feeding.
What stock does it suit?
It is used for the consistent feeding of all fish species, and the 2 to 10 mm pellet range covers fingerling through to grow-out. A minimum fish size is not published, so check with Fresh By Design if you are feeding very small stock.
How is it mounted over a tank or pond?
A retaining ring, swivel arm and pipe penetration are available as accessories, and the feeder can be supplied with FBD feed hoppers. Contact us for feeder mounting bracket options.
Only one option is shown online — how do I order a different size?
The pendulum feeder comes in five versions with 3, 10, 20, 40 or 60 kg containers. Contact Fresh By Design with the container size you need and we will confirm price and availability.
