Tankside: Fish & Aquarium Care

Know how your tank is doing in five seconds. Tankside turns water tests into a clear status and chores into reminders scheduled on your phone. No account, no sign-up, and what you log stays on your device. WATER QUALITY, DECODED Log a test in seconds. Every reading is scored against a target range for your tank type, and the tank gets one status: in range, check this, or out of range. ▸ 13 parameters: temperature, pH, GH, KH, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, TDS, salinity, phosphate, calcium, magnesium and alkalinity ▸ 5 tank types with editable default ranges: freshwater, coldwater, brackish, saltwater and reef ▸ Ammonia, nitrite, nitrate and phosphate are treated as toxic: any exceedance is flagged, not "slightly high" ▸ History charts with your target band and the trend ▸ Celsius or Fahrenheit, litres or US gallons ALERTS THAT EXPLAIN THEMSELVES An out-of-range reading raises an alert with a plain-English note: what the parameter is, what usually moves it and what keepers commonly do next. A second bad reading escalates the alert; a reading back in range resolves it. REMINDERS SCHEDULED ON YOUR PHONE Water changes, feeding slots, water tests and warranty expiry become notifications scheduled on the device itself, so they do not need a connection and survive a restart. ▸ Feeding schedules by time and weekday ▸ Recurring maintenance from daily to quarterly, or every N days ▸ Logging a water change completes the matching task for you KNOW YOUR FISH BEFORE YOU BUY A catalogue of 38 species and 16 plants with care ranges, temperament, tank size and group size, each with its own illustration. ▸ Compatibility check against your tank and every current tank mate: water type, temperature and pH overlap, temperament, fin-nipping and predation by size ▸ Groups count once: a shoal of twelve is one entry A LIVING RECORD Journal entries with photos, a mood and pinned notes. Equipment with warranty dates and service intervals. An expense log, and per-tank statistics for water changes, maintenance time and spend. YOUR TANK, DRAWN An animated tank scene whose water carries the tank's status. Customise substrate, hardscape, plants, livestock and lighting: 14 fish species, 10 decorations and 3 lighting moods. NO ACCOUNT. YOUR LOGS STAY ON YOUR DEVICE. Readings, notes and photos live in the app's private storage on your phone and are not uploaded to us. Logging, charts, the catalogue and reminders work offline; buying or restoring Premium needs a connection. A backup is one file you keep wherever you like. There is no sync between devices: moving phones is a backup and a restore. FREE AND PREMIUM Free, with no time limit: one tank, up to 10 living animals, water tests, alerts and guidance, reminders and feeding schedules, the catalogue and compatibility check, the journal, equipment, the expense log and 90 days of chart history.

The 90-day window is a display limit: every reading is kept. SUBSCRIPTION Premium is an auto-renewing subscription, monthly or yearly.

It is not veterinary advice and does not diagnose illness or recommend treatments. Target ranges are indicative starting points based on published care ranges; adjust them for your own tank. Compatibility results are an informational estimate, not a guarantee. If you are concerned about an animal's health, consult an aquatic veterinarian. Questions?
