    So I just read an article about an iPhone app that allowed you to track your tank parameters, livestock, etc and it got me thinking...I wonder what other apps there are for the Android that I could be taking advantage of.  I'm sure that this is not a complete list, but at least a start.  I'm only including utility apps, not eBooks or themes (there are a bunch of them)
    Apex - $2.99 - An app to log your Neptune Systems controller - Works for Apex, Apex Lite, AC3, AC3 Pro - Includes ability to manage outlets remotely, graphing, etc.
    Apex - Free - Same as Apex, but does not allow you to manage outlets.
    My Aquarium Logger - $2.99 - An app to log all of your aquariums, livestock, parameters, equipment etc.
    Reefs - $2.00 - A mobile interface to the Reefs.com community of reef aquarium clubs and forums
    myMobile Reef Pro - Free - Monitoring app for the Digital Aquatics Reef Keeper 2.0 systems (not sure how it differs from the next one)
    myMobile Reef 2.0 - Free - Monitoring app for the Digital Aquatics Reef Keeper 2.0 systems
    myMobile Reef 1.0 - Free - Monitoring app for the Digital Aquatics Reef Keeper 1.0 systems
    Reef Ready Calc - Calculate aquarium volume, GPH flow, LBS of sand in your sandbed, etc.
    Aquarium Log - Saltwater - $.99 - Tool to log your aquarium stats
    Traquarium - Free - Track and graph your tank stats.
    Fish Compatibility Finder - $.99 - Allows you to determine if certain fish are compatible with others.
    Anyway, there are more I'm sure, but this is a start.  The Android and iPhone marketplace have a fair number of apps that could help you manage, track and record information about your tank.  I'm sure that you could fine even more if you got creative with your search criteria.  I think I'm going to get rid of my spreadsheet and switch to one of these apps!

    That's great that they have so many apps out now for the controllers!  I really like the iPhone app because you can activate feed modes, change outlets and get a 10,000 ft. view of what your tanks are doing.
    AJ, are the Apex apps for the Android similar to the iPhone app?  Here's a few screenshots of mine.

    Eric, the app that I use is Aquanotes but it is proprietary to Neptune Systems.  I haven't done any research on ReefKeeper apps on the iPhone so you'll have to do some search on Google and RC to find out where they are on it.
