Default ok this made me LOL!

I was intrigued by the innovative marine fish feeder that Rich posted awhile ago so I thought I'd check it out on their website. Found this too, pretty neat but the writeup cracked me up.

http://www.innovative-marine.com/auq...defroster.html


"Do you really have 5 minutes to “defrost” frozen fish food in a cup? We certainly don’t."

It made me LOL until I realized how many times I've put food out to thaw and then not fed it. Sheesh, has my life gotten so bad that I really *don't* have 5 minutes to defrost frozen fish food in a cup? The answer is mostly yes. Pathetic.

Also the photo of the single fish daintily eating from this cracks me up. I'd have 5 good sized tangs fighting to get their heads in that little opening. They'd probably knock it off the magnet.

Still a neat idea though, its definitely got me thinking.....

I use and thoroughly enjoy Julian's Thing! Makes the Kent Sea Squirt seem totally inadequate.

Although, don't write-off the effectiveness of Kent's bulbous base if leak-control doesn't concern you too much.

FWIW, I know what it is, saw the big hoohah about it when it was released. I just find it funny they couldn't come up with a better name for it. Then again, maybe thats the perfect name for it

I hear ya about leaving the frozen food out. Then next morning it's like "what's that stink" or the cup is knocked over and the cat looks rather pleased with itself.
