Best Auto Feeder?

Hello,

I a 55 gallon tank and have been looking into getting 3 Anthias (lyretail or possible resplendent) for my tank. I have read that they are best kept when fed two or three times a day. As I am not always home all day, I figured I could get an auto feeder to feed some dry food in the middle of the day when I am gone, and I could feed frozen food when I get home...

Does anyone have any recommendations on Auto feeders? I am hoping not to spend more that $40 on one, so what do you guys think? What is a good brand/model? And does anyone have any advice on the best way to feed Anthias and what to feed them?

Thanks!

I use an Eheim. http://www.marinedepot.com/fish_food...feeder-ap.html .. So far, I've been happy with it.
