Truly Useful

Much earful info on plants, fish fresh and marine, everything else. Info on what works or lives well with others, what does not. Algae info too. Well done a lifetime of info and wisdom.

Good but need to keep those updates comming

I love this app. Just what I have been looking for. I would still like to see more fish like cichlids and starfish. Wish they were in the last update hope to see them in the next. Still worth the money!

Where are all the cichlids?

I like the interface and the database size is impressive. Unfortunately, all of the fish Im looking for are missing from the app. Namely, there are but 1 or 2 types of cichlid listed out of the hundreds typically found in aquariums. It is almost like the author purposefully ignored an entire class of fish! Please release an update soon with at least the 100 most common cichlids (african and s. american).

Needs more common fish

I bought this thinking it would be full of info. As a new aquarium owner I need all the help I can get. But unfortunately it didnt have my fish in it. Barbs, can you believe it? No barbs. Very disapointing. The info it does have is great. It just needs more. I wish it also contained aquarium set-up and care info. Ah well, maybe in the future updates.

Great app

This is a good app, definitely worth downloading. There is some incorrect info such as minimum tank sizes that are too small for the fish, but overall its a good app. I would like to be able to edit previously written profiles and make my own care sheets but since those are on the way, i give this app a 5 out of 5!

Great app but needs more

Awsome app but Ill give 5 stars if u add way more invetebrate like shrimp, lobster, anenomes, starfish, and way more!! Thnxs!

needs some work

add more freshwater catfish, plecos, and cichlids. And some of the common names of the fish are incorrect. Fix this and i will give 4 stars maybe 5. P.S. this app needs more fish to be worth $15.00 dollars

Outstanding

Very well put together user friendly app. The savings in books alone make it well worth the cost. Enough information to keep even the expert icthyologist reading. Extremely satisfied.

A very good reference guide

A very good app., with plenty of room for expansion. As a relatively new member of the salty side of fish keeping this is a very good reference guide.

Nice app!

Very nice app. Lots lots of pics to help identify. The tank log section was very helpful!

Full of extremely useful functions

The database keeps growing and growing! This is sure to be the end all guide to fishkeeping apps. I was equally impressed with the funtions built into this. I expected little other than some walls of wikipedia text and instead found an app with lots of layers. Keep up the good work! This app is worth every penny.

Fantastic app! Very detailed and full of plenty of useful and great information. Highly recommend

Not worth the money

To be honest you can get more and better information for free by using the search on Safari. There is repeat after repeat in all sections. Promised additions never happened . Some of the most popular fish are not included. I was extremely disappointed it is not worth the money.

Missing one thing though

I would really like to see a little more detail in the description for the fishes behaviour. Great tho otherwise!

Gets better with updates

Was expensive at first with little info on corals and marine fish but with the updates, the content just gets better. It still needs common lps corals usually seen at your local lfs but all in all its a good source of reference. Still waiting for the coral database to grow.

Great app, needs more

I really like the idea and layout of this app, although the saltwater section such as corals, inverts, and anemones are seriously lacking. Hopefully will add more in future updates! The water tester is handy, will definately be a 5++ app once the saltwater section is more complete.

Where are the updates?

I really like this app but I updated and still no sharks section. I had to go buy it seperately for an extra $1.99. It says all my updates are installed but dont see any difference. This is a great app and I use it all the time though. Well, worth the money for me. Any suggestions?

Need More Salt Water

I boaght this app only to gain information on Marine INvertebrates, but the data was very limited, and should eb uptades. It is not worth 15 dollars.

Its about time!

Ive been looking for an aquarium encyclopedia app all over the app store! This is the #1app on my iPhone and I have over 100 apps! All of you haters can kiss my a**, cuz they probably took a hell of a long time making this ( and they did include sharks, I checked )!!!! Thank you, the $15 was undoubtly worth every penny! On the other hand... Its kinda laggy and we should be able to customize the pics from our photo library cuz I know I have better pics of some of the fish! Other than that... ITS PERFECT KEEP ON ADDING NEW FISH!!!!!!!!

Ok

Well, this app would be great if it had more info. Yes, this app has a ton of info on it but I have found that there are still a lot of COMMON specimens missing. This holds true for coral, fish and inverts. The tank log is very useful to keep up with water parameters. Would have gotten 5 stars if I could have found more of the common specimens on it. MAYBE there will be an update soon that will add more things to it and fix the lag problem. Worth the money if you want a decent aquarium app. Just my 2cents worth.
