At first I was amazed that you didn't have my filter, but then I remembered that Hagen was the manufacturer not Aqua Clear, duh.
Cant find Sun/Eclipse catfish on the list. It may just be under a common name I'm not familiar with but they're getting pretty common it seems so it may be worth adding if its not there.
Nice work overall definitely bookmarking.

Yeah that filter is so popular that the model name is better known than the manufacturer name...
I'll look for it. If it indeed is a repeat of one of the existing species, I'll still add it as an alias - this is just an internal mechanism to keep one set of attributes but allow multiple common names.

Looking good! I noticed you disabled the value help when entering the # of a particular species, which makes the entry much smoother!
I also think it's cool that you split apart the suggested WC if too large, but I notice two things:
Think you're missing a space after "..schedule to two" and the %. Mine came out as: "You might want to split this water change schedule to two34% per week"
Other thing is that I don't think 2x WC's of half the amount equals a single water change of the full amount...here's how I figure that:
Let I = initial amount of waste at start of week
Let T = target amount of waste at end of week
(assuming waste is distributed uniformly throughout tank)
Let s = % removed as a single wc
Let p = % removed twice during the week as a 2x wc
Let w = waste at time step i
For single water change:
w[0] = I
w[1] = I (only 1 wc in this plan)
w[2] = I - s*I = T (want to get to our target)
Therefore s = 1 - (T/I)
For double water change:
w[0] = I
w[1] = I - p*I
W[2] = w[1] - p*w[1] = I - p*I - p * (I - p*I) = T (same goal)
Therefore T = I - p*I - p*I + p^2 * I
T/I = 1 - 2p + p^2 = (1 - p)^2
So, p = 1 +/- sqrt(T/I) (logically 0 < p < 1 and T < I, so..)
p = 1 - sqrt(T/I) = 1 - sqrt(1 - s)
So if the recommendation is a weekly 60% WC, then that would translate to:
p = 1 - sqrt(1 - .6) = 1 - sqrt(.4) ~= 37% WC
Not sure if you want to do something like this, but just thought I would throw it out there! (plus math is fun
)

Actually, I just lowered the threshhold a bit. Most shoaling species still has the min value set to 5. Many many people had 5 in their tanks and gave me feedback on this so I just lowered it.
Fixed!
I knew someone would point this out... LOL. I got lazy so I just halved it.. I'll add it to my wishlist and thanks for deriving the formula, now I don't need to kill as many of my own brain cells...Other thing is that I don't think 2x WC's of half the amount equals a single water change of the full amount...here's how I figure that:

I'm going to be pushing another build out in about 24 hours. If you'd like me to add any new species, please let me know here or by private message. Thanks.
Archer fish, there are I think 6 different types, most common being toxotes julatrix and I cant rememeber the rest.
