PebbleNibble: Aquascape Log is the pocket companion for planted-tank builders โ a substrate calculator, water chemistry tracker, and growth journal built for people who take their aquascapes seriously.
A taste of the hardscape math PebbleNibble runs for you on every build. Enter your tank dimensions to see how much substrate you need and how much water volume remains after hardscape.
Estimates only โ the full app fine-tunes this per substrate brand, slope, and hardscape density.
We are a small team of planted-tank hobbyists who kept scribbling water test results on sticky notes and guessing at substrate bags until we finally got tired of it. PebbleNibble was built the way most good hardscapes are โ through trial, error, and a lot of trimming โ so that other aquascapers wouldn't have to start from scratch.
Our mission is to bring real precision to a hobby that thrives on patience and observation. Between algae scares, cycling anxiety, and dosing guesswork, we believe every aquarist deserves clear numbers and a calm, structured way to understand what's happening beneath the glass.
PebbleNibble gives you a single home for your tank's story: chemistry logs with safety alerts, a substrate and dosing calculator, a CO2 and lighting schedule, and a photo timeline that follows your layout from raw stone to a lush carpet โ all available offline, whenever you're standing in front of the tank.
Every pebble placed, every parameter logged โ small bites of progress that add up to a thriving underwater world.
PebbleNibble: Aquascape Log was built on a simple premise: your aquarium journal, your water chemistry readings, and your photos belong to you alone. This policy explains, in plain terms, why we have almost nothing to say about "your data" โ because we never receive it in the first place. The app performs every calculation, stores every log, and renders every photo timeline directly on your device, with no account, no server, and no hidden pipeline to the outside world.
