Tank labels

[MissHarlen]

Does anyone have any templates for tank labels, or links to ones for sale?

I feel like there was a website that sold acrylic tanks and also had really cool tank labels.

what do you mean tank labels?

I just use an inkjet printer to make labels.

I just use my label maker.

Oh Brother, you had to ask.

I was curious about trying these labels out actually, because if you want to reuse the enclosure then you can erase the old name and write the new one on, without having to peel the label off.

That's too technical for me. I just write on the enclosure in marker. You city-slickers with your GPS and pencils...

the problem with markers is they sometimes soak into the plastic.

I like being able to reuse enclosures.

My momma told me pencils and markers is the devil. I write with paint hand crafted from plants and rocks mixed with animal fat.

What is 'paint'?? Is that the stuff I use to draw pictures on the walls of my cave?? I dunno how to write. My mom says writing is for democrats.

The Ornithoctonus brother is a pretty awesome tarantula.

Masking tape and a sharpie are a keeper's best friends.

Label maker all the way. I'm not subjecting anyone else to my handwriting.

I just love the neatness of a labeler. I am actually on my second Brother P-Touch -- got 10+ years out of first one; but newer one is a bit fancier. My fave is labeling cords -- makes computer cords so much neater; and you know which usb cord charges what. And it does look professional on T tank fronts.

darn those liberals and their literacy

 

[Leila]

Yup, I just use blank stickers and write on them with a very thin Sharpie. (except Nicoli's label. That came off the container he was shipped in. I wrote his name on there though. )

But why do you tape the labels down if they are already stickers? Because the sticky side sucks, so the edges curl up if I do not secure them with tape.

Oh, and I promise there are actually spiders in those containers, but...they have all been reclusive turds lately.

I use a little label printer with 24mm tape. I like it looking smart
