The Aquaribase feature provides access to thousands of freshwater and saltwater species with taxonomy, care level details, and instant compatibility checks against your existing livestock. Additional tools include visual Timelines for tracking livestock health and growth with photos, equipment and supplement management, a Wish List for planning future purchases, and organized notes for each tank inhabitant.
