    Hello TankSync — an aquarium logging app my family built

    大家好, 想向大家介绍一下我们家一直在开发的一个项目——TankSync,一款用于追踪水质参数的iOS应用程序。它是由我的哥哥和嫂子开发的,我则负责市场推广方面的工作(我本人并不精通技术,所以如果有什么更深入的问题需要我先向他们请教,请多多包涵!)。 我们开发这款产品是因为我们不断看到用户反映同样的困扰:大多数日志记录工具只是存储数字,却无法帮助你了解变化背后的原因。因此,TankSync 专注于因果趋势分析——将参数变化与诸如添加药剂、换水或设备更新等因素联系起来,从而揭示其背后的原因。 关于这一点,有几点需要说明: 一次性购买,无需订阅 所有存储在您设备上的所有内容...

    Snails vs Urchins, Which one is a better cleaner for algae in reef tanks?

    I'm curious as to what everyone thinks on this topic. Snails are usually more recommended for reef tanks, however I feel that urchins don't get enough credit for how much work they can put into eating algae. I know there are a lot of factors that go into keeping each species and what makes them...

    Ok, so a little about me. In my 40's had a reef tank in my 20's while in school and poor. Eventually I realized with the lack of money and the constant moving maybe a Reef Tank isnt for me. So, I had the tank re-homed and have been wanting to get back into ever since. Now older and established...
