TankLog: Aquascape

Fish Tank Log & Reminders

Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Plants named properly. Animals at a glance. CO₂ in every test. Free. No login. Built by an aquascaper, for aquascapers. TankLog is a free freshwater aquarium journal for planted tank and shrimp hobbyists. No login. No subscription. Completely offline — your data stays on your device, nothing ever sent to a server. Built for the people who track CO₂ levels, obsess over KH and GH for their neocaridina colony, and want to know when their nitrates started creeping up — not a generic fish app trying to cover everything. WATER TESTING & PARAMETER TRENDS Log pH, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, KH, GH, phosphate (PO₄), TDS, and temperature. Every reading is graded instantly against your custom target ranges. Parameter Trends charts every test over time, making it easy to spot slow pH drifts, creeping nitrates, or KH swings before they affect your plants or livestock. Each parameter page shows your previous reading alongside recommended ranges. CO₂ ESTIMATION TankLog calculates dissolved CO₂ from your pH and KH readings and displays the result as a color-coded zone — very low, low, ideal, high, or at risk. Essential for high-tech planted tanks where CO₂ directly drives plant growth. CARE SCHEDULES & ACTIVITY CALENDAR Build a maintenance schedule for water tests, water changes, filter cleans, fertilizer dosing, feeding, and more. TankLog sends push notifications when tasks are due and flags overdue items on your home dashboard. The Activity Calendar shows your full care history and upcoming due dates in one view — tap any overdue item to jump straight to the log form. DOSING & FERTILIZER TRACKING Log every fertilizer, mineral supplement, and treatment — with product, amount, and date. Set dosing schedules and track exactly what went into your tank and when. WATER CHANGES, FEEDING & CLEANING Log water changes with volume and percentage. Log feedings with species tags and multiple schedules. Log cleaning tasks — filter maintenance, substrate work, glass cleaning — each with its own schedule and history. ACHIEVEMENTS Earn badges for consistent water testing, on-time care schedules, and overall water quality grades. Tap any badge to see how you earned it, when your streak started, and how to keep it going. EQUIPMENT & LIVESTOCK Record every piece of equipment — lighting, filtration, CO₂ system, heater, pumps. Log fish, invertebrates, and plants with dates added and notes. MULTIPLE TANKS Manage up to 3 tanks, each with its own independent parameters, schedules, livestock records, and history. Switch between them with one tap. YOUR DATA, YOUR WAY Export your complete tank history as JSON anytime. Import it back on the same device or a new one. No cloud dependency. No account to lose access to. Your data is yours, always. No AI gimmick. No subscription. No paywall. Just a well-built, honest tool from someone who loves this hobby as much as you do. Free forever. Metric and imperial units · 12h and 24h time · Light and dark mode · iPhone and iPad

v1.43 — PLANTS, PROPERLY NAMED Your logged plants now show their scientific name front and center — Vallisneria spiralis, not just "Val". The common English name appears alongside as a secondary label. Plant search also now recognizes scientific names, so you can search in Latin if that’s how you think about your plants. LIGHT & CO₂ AT A GLANCE Plant care cards color-code your requirements at a glance. Light: red for high, amber for medium, teal for low-medium, blue for low. CO₂: red if required or strongly recommended, amber if beneficial, teal if a little helps, blue if it’s not a factor. We also updated the plant database — Java Fern, Buce, Cryptocoryne, Water Wisteria, Fissidens Moss, Bacopa, and Pearl Weed are now correctly flagged as benefiting from CO₂. YOUR TANK, AT A GLANCE A new Inhabitants tile on the Tank tab shows your animals and plants in one snapshot — counts, types, and individual species pills. Tap the edit button to control what appears and in what order. CO₂ is now embedded directly in the Last Water Test card. It shows your calculated ppm, zone badge, a gauge bar with an animated needle, bubble animation, and a trend arrow comparing to your previous test. ANIMALS, RETHOUGHT The Animals summary is redesigned: total count, types, and group count at a glance, with pill tags for every group. Group photos now appear in the card header and expanded view. Group quantity is now a direct field — type how many you have. You can still track individual animals inside an expanded group using the new “+ Add Individual” button. TEST SETTINGS Ammonia and Nitrite are now optional — toggle them off in Test Settings if you don’t test for them. Grading is also tightened: any reading above 0 is immediately flagged red. The old 0.25 tolerance is gone. POLISH — Filter flow rate now shows L/h or L/min (selectable) for metric users — Param names (Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrate) now appear in your app language throughout — Plant search suggestions now show scientific name, common name, light, and CO₂ info — Water change volume preview and several labels now fully localized Free. No login. No subscription.
