Refrigerated auto feeder?

Wouldn't it be interesting to try to build a refrigerated unit connected to a feeder that would allow us to feed cooled food to our tanks while away? That way if you have to feed, say, shrimp, you won't need to worry about it spoiling.

That would be cool.

 

Another option would be freeze dried shrimp and a hang on food ring with an auto feeder.

 

I use the eheim auto feeder set low with Aquadine. LFS sells it in bulk and I blend an algae and carnivore type. I also supplement with reef chili and diy frozen cubes.

I have one :D 

 

Basically a dorm fridge with a 3/4" pvc pipe running through it. Perastalic pump with a wide opening to pump the food into the pvc pipe. 

 

I got mine from Stu. A lot of the NPS and cold water folks use them.
