Hold your phone steady and square to the tank glass under normal lighting. Aqua AI captures the whole body, dorsal fin, and coloration details without flash glare.
AI-POWERED SPECIES RECOGNITION
Instant fish identification
from a single photo.
Snap a photo through your aquarium glass. Aqua AI analyzes markings, body shapes, and fin morphology to identify freshwater and saltwater fish, suggest care requirements, and verify tank compatibility.
HOW IT WORKS
Three steps from mystery fish to confident care
Aqua AI combines on-device photography with computer vision trained on over 2,000 captive aquarium species.
2. Instant species matching
