Your stocking score says how full the tank is. This says how well it would do β€” Finn scores stocking, water, maturity, equipment and compatibility, and tells you what to watch.

It's a simulation of a tank on paper, so treat it as a planning estimate. A tank you actually track scores far more accurately.

Add your tank size and at least one species first.
