Just like it says!!
I am looking for something that I can keep my tank stats on the "puter". I am terrible at writing them down at home and bringing them to the note book I keep at the office. I keep them at the office because with two little kids, work is where I have the most free time. LOL.
I am sure that I can just use a excel spread sheet but I was looking for something a bit more fancy. Anyone got any good ideas??
Thanks.

I would just use a MS works spread sheet to track it, they are easy to set up and use. In stead of going out and buying something, that is what i am going to use to track mine. You can even set it up to track the difference +/- just a suggestion.

There is a android app that you can punch in all your parameters. It's called Aquarium Tracker.....There's a app for that!

Thanks Scott!! I was hoping that there was something already done up with all the stuff already. But this can work as well. You got water in your tank yet? LOL.

I keep a notebook, the kind with a clear plastic on the front...I put a picture of my tank in the sheath....I made up a sheet on my art program and copied it to fill out as I go, punched holes in them and put it in a notebook. I have had several computers crash over the years and I still have my info because it is in the notebook. I even took pictures and laminated them, punched holes and added them too. It's really cool to look at the beginning of your reef keeping, notes, pictures, and parameters all in one book.

I have an app on my Ipod Touch that's called Aqua Tracker. I just downloaded it so I can't tell you how well it works, but the reviews give it 4 out of 5 stars.

lol There are some really good softwares available if you want to pay for them geared more towards reefers. Just search out aquarium tracking software. I did a little searching and this one seems to be a descent free version that's trimmed down a little bit from the purchasable version. I might give it a try...click on the picture to view the available screen shots. http://www.softpedia.com/get/Others/Home-Education/ReefCon-2000.shtml
