I think you need a better name for your tank journal.. Something like "Marks's Macdaddy 180"

Too funny Bryan. I just thought I would try to go covert and keep it basic since it is "my fish tank" :D

Happy birthday to the tank today. It was a year ago when I switched out my old tank and got this one wet :)
