Frequently asked questions
What does this zebrafish cage census tracker help me do?+
It lets aquatics-facility staff keep per-cage headcount for a zebrafish colony with a clean, dated, exportable record. Instead of a fragile spreadsheet, you get a structured log of identity, strain, parentage, health and status that you can hand to a reviewer or the next technician at any time.
Does it meet IACUC / animal-welfare record requirements?+
It is designed around the record fields IACUC and ethics committees expect, but it complements — it does not replace — your facility's official system. Keep entries contemporaneous, follow your approved protocol and the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals, and export to CSV so your records are complete and retrievable at audit.
Can I track breeding and pedigree?+
Yes — record sire and dam IDs, pairing dates and litters, and the log builds the parentage history you need for colony genetics and to avoid unintended inbreeding. Weaning for zebrafishs is usually around day 5, which you can schedule from the date of birth.
Is the animal data kept private?+
Yes. Everything lives in your browser via localStorage — no account, no upload, no server. That keeps protocol numbers, genotypes and health notes confidential and lets the tool run offline in the vivarium. Export to CSV whenever you need a shareable or archival copy.
