Peace Tank: AI-powered Fish Tank Compatibility Tool
Web Development
November 2024 - On Going
The Peace Tank website project addresses the need for a streamlined and interactive platform for fish compatibility analysis.
As the Web Developer, I built a robust and responsive website using Next.js, TypeScript, and the OpenAI API, focusing on delivering a seamless user experience for aquarists seeking detailed compatibility insights.

Managing Aquarium Compatibility Can Be Complex...
Aquarists, whether beginners or experienced, often face challenges in determining the compatibility of fish and plants when setting up or maintaining their tanks. This complexity arises from the unique requirements of each species, such as water parameters, behavior, and dietary needs, which must align for a thriving and harmonious environment.
A common approach involves researching species online or relying on scattered compatibility charts, forums, or trial-and-error. However, these methods are often time-consuming, inconsistent, and overwhelming, leading to suboptimal tank setups, stress for the aquarist, and potentially harmful conditions for aquatic life.

/Future Directions
Enhancing the Peace Tank Experience
While the Peace Tank website has successfully launched, providing aquarists with a user-friendly tool for compatibility analysis, there is always room to evolve and meet the growing needs of the community.
To address this, we are focusing on the following future directions:
1. Expanding Compatibility Insights:
- Integrating a broader database of fish and plants to support a
wider variety of species and setups.
- Adding features for analyzing compatibility with invertebrates
and unique tank conditions, such as biotope-specific
recommendations.
2. Engaging the Community:
- Introducing a community feature for aquarists to share their
tank setups, experiences, and advice.
- Providing personalized suggestions based on user profiles and
tank history.
3. Monetization Opportunities:
- Incorporating ads into the platform to generate revenue while
maintaining a user-friendly experience.
- Partnering with aquarium retailers to provide integrated product
suggestions (e.g., fish, plants, equipment) based on user setups,
with affiliate links for revenue sharing..
With these initiatives, Peace Tank aims to meet the evolving needs of its users while maintaining a commitment to innovation, education, and environmental stewardship.
