Depending on the size and type of food you're feeding your saltwater or freshwater tank, you can easily swap out augers. See the feeding and auger chart below for more details.  Precision Dispensing Similar to the Plank, the Plank MINI has a stepper motor designed for ultra-fine and smooth rotations (~1 RPM per rotation). Saltwater AND Freshwater friendly The Plank MINI works with saltwater and freshwater tanks, providing maximum versatility, flexibility, and peace of mind through an auto-feeder. Versatile mounting options The Plank MINI can be mounted on various types of tanks, including rimless, rimmed, T-slot, RMS, and euro-braced tanks, by adjusting the mounting configuration (refer to the manual for more details).  Controller and WIFI plug compatible To unlock the most from the Plank MINI, its controller and WIFI plug ready. This will allow you to program as many feedings as your tank needs to thrive.  Easy to service for cleaning With a large opening for food, this allows for regular cleanings to help keep things running smoothly and last longer, providing you with peace of mind and a more reliable experience.  Optional Feeding Ring Included Given that not all foods are quick sinking, we’ve designed a feeding ring to connect to the Plank MINI to allow fish to come to the surface to eat and keep the food from rushing over the overflow.  AUGER SIZES & FOOD TYPES The Plank MINI features an interchangeable auger design, allowing you to effortlessly choose the appropriate auger.  If you mix feeds, select the largest size to match the diameter of the auger. The Plank MINI comes with three augers: #10, #15, and #20.
