Feature request: "Blogging" for My Cats/Aquaria

I know there is a little box for writing down things about a fish or tank. But how hard would it be to add a "blogging" facility, where a small note could be added as and when something noteworthy happens (e.g. "male fanning", "male on eggs", "eggs hatched", "fry free-swimming" etc for a spawning log)?

Edit: The particular titles I gave are particularly meaningful for the breeding logging, but I do not think it's SIMPLY for that - other things such as "Saw them eat today" or "Seems to have settled in, less nervous" would be just as valid. But the motivation for doing this would perhaps connect more with the breeding challenge.

I second that idea but I'd find it helpful for simple observations too. Helpful to newer cat keepers for common fish with very little written about them.

i.e.,took me days to find the things many Farlowella keepers would have thought of a common behavior, colour changing etc. Not 'furniture' at all!
It would be helpful if I could click on a particular fishkeeper's 'notes' or 'comments' beside that fish. May not always be helpful but some people are VERY observant and good notetakers :)

Sounds like a project for you Mats! I've held off on this one as I wanted to see what the breeding pages looked like.

There is a bit of overlap for the breeding pages (and perhaps the breeding pages should ALSO have a "this is what happened today" type feature, so that someone can fill in the steps of what happens as and when it happens).

We'd have to discuss exact format and such, but yes, I'd be happy to work on this project.
