Abstract:

Since the rise of aquarium fishkeeping during the COVID-19 pandemic, aquarium fish pet owners have to take into account one of the most crucial aspects of fishkeeping - feeding the fish. To properly care for aquarium fish, one must ensure that the amount and timing of the given fish feed is accurate to avoid overfeeding or underfeeding the fish. The problem of fish feeding then led the researchers to create an Auto Fish Feeder powered by a solenoid. The research study followed a quantitative study method and an experimental research design. The device was then tested for the dispense delay, feed distributed per dispense, and the capacity of the fish feeder. The researchers observed that the Auto Fish Feeder created performed swiftly as the device’s opening and closing dispense delay reached an average of 0.732 seconds and 0.252 seconds respectively. Next, the mass of fish feed per dispense observed was 0.7 grams throughout the three trials. Furthermore, the capacity of the...
