No complaints this time (Other than the sixline )
Oh and clicking Fahrenheit still links incorrectly.

So for sixth line, is it really ok with smaller tanks?

I think I know what I did wrong with that bug fix on the temperature link. I'll fix it for the next release in few days. It was a small overlook.

You seem to be right. Most of the profile sites also say 20g - just happens that the one I was looking at was using higher number. Will be fixed for the next build.

Thanks.

You are correct - it was a typo. In the app DB, it was entered correctly.

Ran through some of the species and the warning and such are right on that I saw!
Only addition you might make is to add a warning about the clown gobies and court jester gobies in which many times they decide not to eat.

Oh and also multiple bangaiis can also be a problem. Contrary to popular belief, multiple males will more times than not fight with each other until only one remains. Females will usually ignore each other, however. Only juveniles can be housed together safely.

Just a note to newbies that this program still has a lot of , well, let's say bugs with regards to saltwater tanks. Most saltwater tanks use live rock for filtration; we have different nitrate requirements; many have sumps which alter volume but not swimming space. I must state that one should use caution with this program for the time being. SH

Agreed 100%. This app is still highly experimental, and I am still testing/collecting a lot of feedback. Please do NOT use it as a bible!

Different nitrate requirements are being adjusted but not 100% accurate right now. Sump supports are coming (which will address volume change but not swim space).
