Fish Identifier turns your camera into a field guide for fish. Point it at a fish in a tank, in a pond, over a reef or still wet in your hand, and get a likely match in seconds, with the habitat the species lives in at the top of the result. WHAT ONE PHOTO GIVES YOU - The common name, and an alternate name where the fish has one - The Latin scientific name, or the genus where a photo cannot go further - The habitat the species lives in: freshwater, saltwater, brackish, reef, pelagic or deep sea - The taxonomic family it belongs to - Native range, and where the species has been introduced - Typical adult length, in centimeters and inches - What it eats, and whether it schools or lives alone - Look-alike species, and the trait that tells them apart - A confidence level, so you can see how sure the answer is FRESHWATER, SALTWATER OR REEF? That label leads every result, because it is the first thing a keeper, a diver or anyone at the shoreline actually wants. It is a short category from a fixed set - Freshwater, Saltwater, Brackish, Reef, Pelagic, Deep sea - and it belongs to the species, not to the individual fish in your photo and not to the water you were standing in. A reef species photographed in a living-room tank still reads Reef. It is a description, never a number, and never an instruction about what to put in a tank. AQUARIUM, POND, REEF AND WILD Cichlids, tetras, guppies, bettas and plecos in a community tank. Koi and goldfish in a garden pond. Wrasses, angelfish and butterflyfish over a reef. Perch, carp, bass and trout in fresh water. Sharks and rays count too, because they are fish. Something that is not a fish comes back with low confidence and says so, rather than with an invented name. BUILT FOR THE PHOTOS YOU ACTUALLY TAKE Through glass, at an angle, half the fish already leaving the frame. Body shape, fin count and shape, barring, scale pattern, mouth position and the lateral line all go into the match. When an image cannot support a species-level answer, and with juveniles, cichlids, gobies, minnows and characins it often cannot, the result stops at the genus or the family and says so instead of inventing a species. ASK ABOUT THE FISH YOU JUST FOUND Every scan can open a thread about that species. Ask what separates it from its look-alikes, how far its range really goes, what it eats, why it shoals. It stays on fish and does not wander off topic. YOUR COLLECTION, KEPT Every scan is saved on your device with its photo, so a week of dives or a tank you inherited turns into a list you can read back later. Nothing to type in. No account. WHO IT IS FOR - Aquarium and pond keepers with a fish that arrived without a name - Divers, snorkelers and rock-pool watchers who photographed something and want a name - Anglers who want to know what they just caught - Parents and teachers at the aquarium with a curious child HONEST ABOUT WHAT A PHOTO CAN DO An identification here is a best-effort AI suggestion, not an authoritative determination. This app names species and tells you about them. That is all it does. It is not a source of regulatory, health or husbandry guidance: it does not tell you what may be kept or taken where you live, it is not a setup or feeding plan for a tank, and it gives no advice on handling any fish. Aquarium notes and range notes are background about a species, never an instruction about the one in front of you. Identification needs an internet connection. Scans you have already saved stay on your device and can be reopened at any time. The app interface and the results are available in 33 languages. PREMIUM Free includes 2 identifications per day. Premium removes the daily limit and opens the full detail sheet on every result. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends, and you can manage or cancel yours in your App Store account settings at any time.
