Why buy it if the guides are free?
The breeding guides on this site are free and always will be. The planner puts the key facts for all 8 animals on one page each, adds the fry food guide and gives you logs to fill in, so you can keep it next to your tanks. Buying it also supports the free calculators and guides.
