FD Cyclop-eeze on autofeeder?

I'm considering installing an autofeeder for my two spotted mandarins. They currently browse the LR, and I feed frozen cyclops and brine a couple times a day. I would like to try freeze-dried cyclop-eeze, but want some opinions before I buy a can.

Has anyone experience with mandarins eating this product (remember: specifically talking about the freeze-dried variety)? Also: I was thinking I would put an autofeeder with a rigid tube on it to allow the cyclops to drift to the bottom of the tank, re-hydrating on the way down (otherwise the overflow will just suck them up). Any other ideas for getting the FD cyclops down to the bottom where the mandarins will have a chance of getting to them?

Any other mandarin-autofeeder ideas would be appreciated as well.
