What this checker does and doesn’t check

Checks
  • A temperature and pH range all your fish share
  • Tank mate conflicts between every pair (fins, size, temperament, water hardness)
  • Each species’ minimum tank size, and pairs that need more room together
  • Minimum group sizes for schooling species
Doesn’t check (yet)
  • Total stocking. It won’t tell you a tank is overcrowded. Fifty fish that each fit a 10-gallon tank don’t fit one together.
  • Filtration, tank shape, plants and decor
  • Your own water: test it, and compare with each species’ page

It covers 11 species today. Use it to rule combinations out, not to prove a tank is safe.
