- Bug fixed: Sometimes, the app was mis-reporting a warning related to similar shoaling species. This has been fixed.
- New feature: Now juvenile sized species are supported! This feature was a huge pain in the <insert your favorite part here> to implement - there might still be some bugs related to this and overall bioload calculation on these sub-adult sizes, hence may require further fine tuning. Please let me know if it looks right. A bonus - once you enter your species in juvenile sizes, you can flip back and forth between juvenile mode and adult mode. When you flip, the application will automatically re-calculate stocking %, filtration capacity %, and water change % so that you know what you are dealing with once they are grown up. I did not change the warnings so those will continue to assume all species are grown up. Try it out!
- New feature: Now the app allows users to flip between two window sizes. One is ideal for laptop users and the other is ideal for those who use monitors with higher resolutions.

- Changed the layout - now it is more friendly for lower resolution displays such as those found on netbooks. It will not go wider than 1024 pixels.
- Now when you select a species '1' is auto-populated in the Quantity box.
- Changed one of the message - instead of "too big" now it will say "may become food". Some species can still consume other species without becoming "too big".
- Total number of filters in DB has been increased to 255.
- Total number of species in DB has been increased to 737.

i got a 295% stocked that is no way right.
got a warning that tiger barbs should not be kept with cherry barbs as the tigers are to aggresive and i should have atleast a group of 5 cherry barbs. well i have 2 tiger barbs and 3 cherry ones, my tigers are not at all agressive they're really laid back and happy and my cherry ones are perfectly happy aswell. was also told that the pleco was to aggressive to be in with the barbs not once has my pleco been aggressive in anyway towards them and they all live happily together.

Decided to put it here rather than PM! 
Having had a proper look, I've warmed to it quite a bit, and I've got to be honest there's not much wrong with it.
Regarding my comments about guppies, it's worth having two different options for male and female guppies. Whilst females can reach 2 inches, males generally stay around half this size, and so have a different bioload with them being generally slimmer and smaller fish. Unfortunately I've realised that my source for this was a book, and I'm not sure how much you'd trust wiki but it also says it on there. The same applies to Endler's livebearers, although you don't seem to have those on there, which might be an idea, they're becoming quite popular (where I live at least!).
Also, a few species that spring to mind which I reckon would be appropriate for my eventual 6g are the microrasboras/microdevarios, such as Microdevario kubotai and Microrasbora rubescens, Danio erythromicron, and Microdevario nana. Though only rarely popping up, they're becoming much more popular. Probably worth noting that due to their extreme small size (2cm) they should not be housed with bigger fish, they'd quickly become dinner.
It'd also be great to see a few more european models of tanks aswell. For example, the 6g hex I've been looking at is a european model and has a built-in filtration system, and therefore it's difficult to identify the most similar filter. Juwel tanks also have filter built in, though I'm not sure if the Juwel filters on there are the same as you'd find in the tank, could you clarify? My first tank was a Juwel Rekord which unfortunately cracked due to some heavy-handed moving by my brother, and so if I found the same tank I'd want to know how much I could stock with the built-in filtration.
There are also quite a few african cichlids missing (unless they're listed under names other than the names which are common over here) so that might be worth looking into.
Other than that, it's a really good ap which seems to have come on a lot over the months, well done

Generally, Tiger barbs are known to be terrible fin nippers especially if you keep them as a group of 2 so people should know about it before thinking about getting only two if they don't have them already. If you have 2 already and if they are not causing any issues for you, then that's great. *thumbsups
As the above post mentioned, common Pleco, when they grow has been known to eat smaller fishes during the night when they sleep.
What is the size of the tank? Sounds like that 295% was single handedly caused by the pleco.

Decided to put it here rather than PM!
Nice to hear!
I didn't know that about guppies. I have built the facility to handle male and female separately if needed (see betta) for the species that are significantly different. Let me read up on guppies as well.
I do have endlers on the list already. I've seen those - they are very cute.
I'll add those to my wishlist as well. One of the attribute for each species in DB is called "mouth size" and it is used to calculate whether one fish is capable of eating the other species or not. Another attribute I am always fine tuning based on user feedback. So anything that has been marked as mouth size greater than those sizes will produce warnings if you mix them.
Yeah I need to work on that a bit more. First of all, I don't have any 'L' based tank dimensions because when I started looking into it, it didn't add up. Most of the Juwel tanks over-quoted their volume by quite a bit and I couldn't really figure out the real dimension by looking at the spec alone. It appears that this way of quoting volume is common in Europe. If I can find a way to get more accurate dimension info, I would gladly add them to the list.
Yes I do believe there are quite a few that are missing. Currently I add species based on user feedback. I started this when I had around 200 species and now I have 700+, all came from users. I guess African species are less popular...
If you have any specific ones, let me know as well.

- Starlight Bristlenose Pleco has been changed to non-brackish.
- Added an L number to Starlight Bristlenose Pleco. (L183)
- Bristlenose Pleco and variations are marked as compatible with Tropheus D and M.
- Bristlenose Pleco and variations are marked as compatible with Lake Tang species.
- Bioloads for all Arowana species have been increased significantly.

- Total number of tanks in DB has been increased to 70.
- Total number of species in DB has been increased to 763.
Requester: I thought I was missing one of the small Eclipse tank dimensions but I don't think that is the case. If still missing, please get back to me.
