Description:
In a community tank with a mix of fast-moving surface and mid-water fish like tetras, danios, or barbs, getting food to the bottom of the tank is a genuine challenge. By the time a sinking pellet or wafer reaches the substrate, it's often been intercepted by faster fish higher in the water column, leaving bottom dwellers like corydoras, loaches, plecos, and shrimp without their fair share.
The Aquarium Bottom Feeder Feeding Tube solves this by delivering food directly to the bottom of the tank through a clear acrylic tube, bypassing the upper water column entirely. Food drops straight through the tube and lands in the spacious collection tray at the base, where bottom-dwelling fish can feed without competition from faster tank mates. The anti-clamp fish grid on the tray protects smaller fish and shrimp from being trapped while feeding, and the directional design minimises food spillage outside the tray, keeping uneaten food contained and making cleanup easier.
The tube is adjustable from 17cm to 38cm to suit different tank depths, and attaches to the tank glass via suction cups for a secure, stable position. Made from clear acrylic so it stays discreet in the tank.
Suitable for freshwater aquariums with bottom-dwelling fish including corydoras, loaches, plecos, and shrimp.
Product Features:
- The feeder prevents fish food from scattering, maintaining a clean aquarium environment and avoiding water pollution.

Bottom dwellers are some of the most useful and interesting fish in a community tank, but they're also the easiest to underfeed without realising it. If your corydoras or loaches are looking thin despite regular feeding, competition from faster fish is often the reason. This tube is a simple, effective solution that ensures your bottom dwellers are actually getting fed.
Rinse the tube and tray periodically to remove food residue and algae build-up. Check suction cups regularly to ensure the tube remains securely positioned. Remove any uneaten food from the tray after feeding to maintain water quality.
