Kent Marine Sea Squirt Feeder

[sales weasel]

I tried to use the search function over several hours, but it's down. I hope there isn't a huge thread on this somewhere.

I bought one of these feeders and I used it to feed my Sun Coral and it's great! I can pinpoint each polyp and not waste any food. It's so much better than my old turkey baster. Anyone else using one of these?

you talking about the 20" that can extend to 35" with a useless red needle on tip?
if yes, then i have one....its good, but cannot fit any food with any size to it.

nice though

i just realized that i could open the whole wider as it is a one piece plastic tube inverted running back up the big tube inside(i hope that made sense)

I use it for Mysis and Brine shrimp. The extendable point on the end is for larger pieces of food. As I said in my original post, I use the tube feeder for pinpoint feeding my polyps. I have no use for the extendable point.

I just saw this at my LFS and cant wait to try it. I just moved my sun coral to the bottom of my tank and i think it will make life much easier.

Eagle - I got it ... good tip

The original design is useless unless you want to find your corals with water ... but the way Eagle modified it ... it works with all kind of food, even meaty chunks

I have one , I use it for spot feeding and also to blow off hard to reach places on my rock.

I've been using mine now for a couple of months. I made the hole just a little larger. It does occasionally get clogged and I'll squeeze a litte too hard on the bulb and blow out a clump of brine shrimp. Mysis shrimp work really well though.

I agree. I took a 1/8" drill bit and opened it up just a tiny bit more. Made a world of difference with mysis shrimp.
