Beginners setting up their first tank, families learning together, and hobbyists who want a simple, guided way to track aquarium care without designing their own layout. Everyone from kids to adults will find something useful here.

Both help you track water parameters and daily care. The Planted Edition adds dedicated sections for CO₂ dosing, lighting schedules, nutrient tracking, and plant growth—perfect for anyone keeping or planning to keep live aquatic plants.

Most people choose the one that matches their setup. If you have a fish-only freshwater tank, the standard journal is perfect. If you’re adding plants soon, the Planted Edition gives you room for CO₂, lighting, and nutrient notes. If you’re staying unplanted for now but might try plants later, start with the regular journal—you can always upgrade to the Planted Edition when you’re ready.

Absolutely. Everything is written in simple, clear language. Even the storybook Life in Balance teaches aquarium fundamentals in a way that kids, parents, and brand-new hobbyists can all understand and enjoy.

Yes! Every page includes real aquarium concepts—species information, ecosystem balance, and care basics. They’re designed to be both fun and genuinely educational for all ages.

Not at all—each book stands alone. That said, many people start with Life in Balance to learn the core concepts, then pick up a journal or coloring book based on what fits their interests or tank type.
