On off switch with delay turn on

[Ocean Mang]

Does anyone know of a plug-in on off switch/timer that would offer a 10 minute delay turn on? Basically looking for the same function that a controller would offer in feed mode, turn off for 10 minutes or so and then turn back on automatically.

You want this switch for the return pump or all the pumps?

Just for return pump, my skimmer has this built in (Tunze DC)

A digital online timer can often be programmed to provide the requested functionality.

These are usually around $20.00

I actually have one of those timers, but I don't always feed at the same time. I should probably just buy a used old school reef keeper.

The best way is APEX or another type of controller. IT's a bit of money but it adds to the fail safes you might already have in place.

Most SPDT switches can be wired to do this. An example would be.This is essentially a three way switch.

You do not want the SPST switches.
