Aquarium Software For Mac Os X

[xoedusk]

I'm in the process of making a little program that will help out the fellow fish keeper. Here are some screen shots. Only the "current" and "water change" tabs are done. What do you guys think? Any thing else you guys can think of?

Hey thanks! Not sure about making one for Windows, though. I'm sure someone else here could.

US Gallons is imperial so slightly confusing having 'US Gallons' and 'Imperial Gallons'.

I know what you mean, but I would think it less confusing to just state either 'UK Imperial Gallons' or 'US Imperial Gallons', or simply 'UK Gallons' / 'US Gallons'

I'd only use only 1 or 2 decimal places as well...

Great little Idea. Great little program!

US Gallons is imperial

actually US gallons are metric

 

[Underwurlde]

US Gallons are NOT bloody metric anything. PERIOD. Metric is Litres, Meters etc

nmonks does this sort of thing aswell.

xoedusk, if you need help you should pm him about it.

looks good though.

can you make it work for windows aswell? if not ask nmonks, he found a way.

Actually, there is technically no such thing as UK gallons. Imperial gallons are what most people refer to as UK gallons. US gallons are smaller. Imperial relates to the fact they were used throughout the British Empire.

More information than you would probably ever want to see on gallons is [url="http/here.

looks very good to me great little program you will have there when its finished! will you be selling it? just out of interest what programming language have you used to develop it? im new to programming and i can only currently use VB!

 

[SuperColey1]

Don't mean to put a downer on things, but what exactly will the program show? History of tanks readings? What use does it have?

Not being finickity just wondering what it would give the fishkeeper?
