Rich, the Formula One and Formula Two pellets drift around a bit. I buy the smallest kind. If you do use an automated feeder, have it dispense into a feeding ring or a plastic cup mounted on the edge of the tank. The bottom of the cup should be removed, and the base should be submerged slightly. That way any food floating will have to saturate to begin dropping below.
Typically fish will recognize the feeding time and as they peck in that area they'll cause the food to fall more quickly.
