I've been looking at these apps, both for iphone and for ipad, and I settled on TankBuddy 'cause you can record some test results as well. Ideally I'd love a water change monitor that allowed you to select from a list of water tests and let you track the test results you choose (so for instance, if I want to record my nitrate readings each week I can but I don't have to have iron on there if I don't want to, but somebody who does do iron tests could select iron and keep a record of those readings but might not want to have nitrate) maybe even a graph you could turn on and off, so you could see the results over time when you want to, but it wouldn't slow everything down when all you want to do is enter data. I went through a pile of different apps but didn't find anything that was flexible enough yet, TankBuddy was the closest so far.

Dear chris oe,

Thank you so much.
I think TankBuddy is good, I will check it out.
According to your experiences, does the TankBuddy has build-in reminder?
Thank you.

hey guys- I actually created an iphone app that does a lot of what you guys are looking for, it's called AquaPilot. just search it on the app store, or go to aquapilotapp.com or facebook.com/aquapilot to learn more about it. it automatically schedules partial water changes and filter media changes in your ios calendar, and will calculate your tank cycles based on your test results. It does lots of other stuff too... and since I created it, if you leave me feedback I can try to incorporate some of your ideas into it! It's not free but it's cheap, I had to recoup the cost of developing the app. Most people have given it excellent reviews, so maybe it will help you out! i'll check this thread for feedback, as it's usually the users who have the best ideas how to improve a product

aquaPlanner Pro is for multiple aquariums, Lite is for 1
What can I say, just read the reviews on the App Store
