## Review summary

Users find the app to be a valuable source of fish care knowledge and a helpful organizer, with strong notes on compatibility and tank size. However, repeatedly cited issues include a very limited catalog (especially for plants and invertebrates), unreliable photo identification, and a frustrating UI that hides the 'add/delete' functions. The stock calculator is seen as too simplistic, and the paid upgrade is expensive with limited payoff. Overall, it's useful but with significant usability and content gaps that hinder advanced use.

### Pros

- Wealth of knowledge on fish care, compatibility, diseases, and tank considerations.
- Great for organizing and tracking tank inhabitants and planning community tanks.
- Easy to use and well-made, making it useful for beginners.
- Helpful guidance on what fish are suitable to mix in a community tank.

### Cons

- Limited fish catalog; cannot add species not in catalog and few thumbnails.
- Premium is expensive and upgrade delivers limited value (plants cannot be added, few features).
- Stocking calculator relies on the simplistic 1 inch per gallon rule and is not accurate for many setups.
- Photo/camera identification is unreliable and often misidentifies fish.
- UI/UX issues make adding or deleting fish/tanks difficult, with add/delete options hidden behind panels or toolbars.
