Tsarmina Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Hi yhbae, it definitely is a great idea creating a tool like this. at present the only issues i have with it are: You need to update the filter list to include older models (especially the fluvals), though i am well aware there are a lot to list You don't have Leopardfish (Phalloceros caudimaculatus) on your list never the less, i have added your site to my favourites for future references Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yhbae Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 they don't have trophues listed or many of the africans so it will be interesting to see if they have calc'd for the african overstocking requirements. I think I have two of them listed. I don't do anything special for Africans because I want to show that they are overstocked even if it was by design. For Mbuna species, it even reports that it is ok to overstock it. I forgot that you need to do that for Tropheus species too... I'll add that message in the future release.

yhbae Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 if i could have found all the species i have in my african tank there would be like a page of warning lol there was already about 20 after i added the first 15 fish. another thing is it doesnt take into account the age of the fish Could you list all species that are missing from your stock? I can add those. Also, if you saw any "wrong" warnings, please let me know. I can fix those as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yhbae Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Haha fun little tool, with the stocking that I eventually want I'm glad it says I'm still understocked. You must have tried it when it still had temperature bug. It is fixed and they should show the actual required temperatures for each species rather than same temperature for all species.

yhbae Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 After I factored in the 53 BN's incl. babies in my breeder tank. :lol: . Not very sensible but funny. I guess it kinda worked ok in this case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yhbae Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 haha this is funny,it almost blew the site up when i added my gba breeding tank that is currently housing a pleco too :oops: I capped the stock level to 5000%. Did you happen to hit that level? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yhbae Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Found that my lounge tank will be 99% stocked once i get my new fish And for the big tank in my room I got: bolded bit is funny cos my shark is already with the loaches & had no losses :lol: Basically the way the app works with the size warning is that if the larger species is larger than 3.5 times the smaller one, it will give this warning. It more a less works for many species but not all of them. I have an attribute for each species that corresponds to their "mouth size". I can bring this size down to make this species safer with smaller species. Alternatively, I can also add this species under "Good Exception" list of the shark. So before I go and update DB, are we sure that these two can co-exist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yhbae Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 LOL Wow, is that your actual tank? May be I over-estimated the aggression of Parrot Cichlids... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yhbae Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 yes they do It appears that most of the warnings are caused by the presence of Copadichromis Borleyi and SAEs in your mbuna tank. I would think those are not a great mix... Are they getting along ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try removing some of (Pterygoplichthys pardalis, Ancistrus sp., Pelvicachromis pulcher, Pangio kuhlii) or get a larger aquarium tank. what!! 1 pair kribensis outgrowing a 90l tank!!!! true bout the pleco tho,im trying to find him a bigger home Currently, Krebensis is marked to require a tank with a footprint of 20x10 inches which is not very big. What is the footprint size of your tank? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yhbae Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Yeah I had my rainbow shark in with Dwarf Chain Loaches too and he had no problem with them. He just didn't like one of the larger Zebra Loaches :roll: Hmm, so those sharks are only good with _some_ loaches? Yikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if my gourami will try and breed, and if they will indeed try and hurt the tetras? Not sure why that image got stretched... Hmmm... Your tank does look busy and heavily stocked. As for Gouramis, they do tend to become more aggressive when they spawn but I'm not sure if they are aggressive enough to cause problems. Perhaps someone else can answer this and I can update the DB accordingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Gouramis, they do tend to become more aggressive when they spawn but I'm not sure if they are aggressive enough to cause problems. Perhaps someone else can answer this and I can update the DB accordingly. It got stretched, as this forum can not work out the dimensions of the image. So i used iforce to host it @ 640x480. I do like your site, maybe another upgrade in the future could include all in one aquariums, like the Aqua-one AR series, and the Juwel etc. ie Input tank model, and the filtration rates and sizes are all set. Yeah my tank is busy, but everyone plays nice, so it's not really an issue, I have plenty of hidey holes, and plants for everyone to have there own space. the only issue i have at the moment, are my damn Gourami's laying hide and go seek. They hide so well, i spend ages looking for them, only to have them just pop up when they feel like it. I will upgrade in the near future (1 year +) to a bigger tank, so everyone will have some more room, or might end up with a second 620, and split them up a little.

Caryl Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Thought I would give this a go but it does not list any of the Jebo filters (and mine is a Jebo 819), nor does it have pearl gouramis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floater Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Random question here, but when the app looks at the dimensions of the tank does it take into account that the tank isn't filled to the brim? If so what does it compensate by? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brennos Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Yeah, I was thinking the same thing, also things like substrate, rocks, heaters etc. They all add up to a fair amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did look at some of those all-in-one setup and hit into a problem. Not really related to all-in-one issue but in general, all tanks marked in litres appear to over-quote their volume by a good margin. I could not figure out the actual dimension of the tank and often, if you use their dimension, the volume comes out 15-20% lower than the manufacturer quoted numbers. If I knew what numbers to use, I'm sure I can find a way to implement it. I too had an overstocked tank and kept them healthy for years. My bristlenose plecos even bread in that tank. Lots of water changes but it certainly is feasible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll add your filter in the wishlist. Even if you don't select the filters, it will still report the stocking level since this is independent from the filtration capacity. I'm pretty sure pearl gourami is on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yhbae Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 welcome yhbae, when is it going to be updated to include dats? Thanks. Are you the one who requested for Thinbar Datnoid? I just added it to my dev server earlier today, so it should show up on the next release. I am so behind in terms of adding new species and adding/updating features. Users are very demanding! But I am dealing with a finite quantity here, so it will eventually end... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so what does it compensate by? Actually it does assume it is filled to the brim just to make the calculation simpler. If you really want to take that into account, you can make your height of the tank a bit lower to match your water level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
