With a larger tank soon to be set-up with more gadgets and more supplements it can get difficult to remember what get’s dosed when, and when you last cleaned what….that’s why we’ll be picking up  Massimo Vignelli’s 1966 modern classic Stendig Wall Calendar. At 36×48 it’s quite large, but by using simple color coded dot stickers we’ll be able to keep track of everything. (e.g. blue dot=amino acids) The simple nature of this black and white calendar works well in almost any setting.

Stendig Calendar 

 Last week when testing our tank, I received a pretty nasty burn from the hydroxide solution used in our Elos Calcium test. I then realized we didnt have much in terms of a medical kit.  I remember making one back in grade school, but it sure was fugly in comparison to this. Check out Harry Allen & Associates med kit. They teamed up with Johnson & Johnson to create this iconic look, perfect for patching up those self-inflicted fragging wounds. The minimal design is a must for any modern home, wether hidden in the cabinet or out in plain site ever now and then.

    The calendar is pretty cool and I dig the retro first-aid box. You know, this may not work for everyone, but it works for me: I only dose my tank once every 15 days with Prodibio’s Bio Kit Reef, so I setup a reoccurring appointment that alerts me when it’s time for the next dosage. My cellphone, a Motorola Q from Verizon Wireless, is synced with my Outlook so I also receive the reminders on my phone. May not work for every one, but I just thought I’d share!
