what does your feeder consist of and how does it work?

 

[Paul B]

It's just a plastic container with a fine mesh on top. There is a tube going to the surface with a funnel on it to load the new born shrimp. The shrimp try to get out through the mesh and the fish eat them. I also patented a larger version for adult shrimp
