Tank Care Ledger User Guide

How to create tanks, log water parameters, manage routines and export CSV or PDF records.

Start with a tank

Open Tank Care Ledger to review active tanks, parameter-log counts and routines due soon. Create a tank with a short name, tank type, optional volume, setup date and notes.

Use the tank dashboard

Open a tank to add parameter logs, care events, routines and records. The dashboard shows latest key readings, due routines, recent history and saved records for that tank.

Log water parameters

Use Parameter Log to record the readings you tested, such as temperature, pH, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, KH or salinity. You can leave fields blank when you did not test them and add optional notes.

Only enter the readings you have. Tank Care Ledger keeps previous values visible where available.

Record care events

Use Care Event for water changes, dosing, feeding, cleaning, testing, livestock changes, equipment changes and other notes. Optional photos can be added through Apple system photo controls when useful for your own record.

Create routines

Create recurring routines for care tasks such as water changes, parameter testing, filter checks, dosing checks or equipment inspection. Tank Care Ledger can request notification permission only when you choose to use reminders.

Track records

Use Record for livestock, equipment and supply notes. Records can include status, added or removed dates, notes and an optional photo.

Export and share

Open a tank dashboard or Settings to create local PDF or CSV exports. Use the Apple share sheet to save, print or send the exported file through destinations available on your device.
