I found an awesome site with a great sheet for tracking a new tank cycle! I just started using it, and I hope you guys like it too.

That's pretty cool! I used Excel and recorded my daily results. I like this way better.

Thanks for sharing the link
One of our members created one a while ago. I thought we had it stickied.
I downloaded the file and I'll sticky a blank sheet in the Aquarium Nitrogen Cycle section of the forum with credit to the author.

I downloaded the file. What a nice little tool... so appealing to my graph loving, neat record keeping self! The notebook technique was driving me nutso.

Daily? You do daily water tests? Boy am I slacking.

Only when I was cycling a tank with fish OR whenever I start a new tank and cycle with media.

Now it's only full parameters once a week. The full parameters let me know if I'm overfeeding or having any filtration issues.

It'll be back to daily testing when I start up these empty tanks in the spring.

I love it. Thanks so much for sharing. They work great in Open Office too.

Thanks Hitch Hiker! That's good to hear. I've been running mine on Numbers, the Mac version of Microsoft Spreadsheet. So it seems they're compatible with all the major office programs.
