Fish ID Tags

I am looking for Fish Id tags to attach under my tanks. The kind you may find in a fish store with a color picture, species name, facts etc.
In particular a catalog of them for Cichlids. I want to be able to print it out on my color printer and keep track of what int the tanks

Don't want to make them myself, I hope that someone has already done it.

Wow, pretty awesome! You've really got my inner OCD fish geek doing a Happy Dance right now. :)

I wonder how hard it is to come up with something like that.....

For example, would it be possible to have a database of fish kept by CCA members that can do that?

I came up with a static prototype(basically just the html).

This might be something that ruby on rails would work really well for. I think you would(at least initially) want to put urls for images in the database rather than dealing with uploading images.

It is possible to generate QR codes and that maybe a nice to have, but it can be time consuming.

It wouldn't be bad to do the PHP coding, but I don't really have the interest to go that direction.

That is exactly was I was looking for. I think all the content is on the cichlid-forum. Com.

Sharpie on the glass works well (that's what a lot of fish stores do). Paint pens work better, as they won't wash off with just water. A razor blade is all you need to clean things up.
