I’ve heard that there is a risk of being infected with ailments from maintaining a home aquarium.
hi,
(guppy, tetra, snails, platy, shrimp (larger))
how do you use brine shrimp as a food
> can you breed them at home for a constant supply
> how do you purchase them, pet store?, are they bought from a tank?
> how many would i need for a 60l tank diet (mixed with flake food, to help vary the diets of the fish)
thanks for help
im mainly interested in using live food to help the fish have a better diet and overall be healthier, and have been recommended to use brine shrimp, but unsure how to do so.
My dog got pregnant when i was at school, because my dad accidently let her out the house when she was in heat, now she starting labour, she hasnt really "started yet so i have time to get the things i need because i live next to a place thats sells alot of dog supplies.
Can you give me a list on what i need to buy? (My dad used or old wadding pool to set up a whelping box.) and can you Tell me what the hell to do (dont tell me let nature take its coarse)? It needs to be detailed. A webiste would be alright to.
HURRY!!!
I called the vet and she says she will be right over but it may take a 30-45 minute drive.
I was wondering what people are paying to care for their dogs on a monthly basis. I have a small dog and am wondering if I’m spending too much on my dog. After adding things up, mine comes out to 0 a month.
If you can itemize something, the biggies on your list like food, that would be greatly helpful.
Thanks.
Oh and I just so the typo in the main question. It’s supposed to say "to OWN and care for a small dog". Sorry about that.
I have recently decided to breed mollies, i have a few females in my 50 gallon aquarium, but because I don’t want them just throwing out babies constantly, I want to get a male and keep it away from the females until I want them to breed.
Because our pet store only takes animals and fish from local breeders (that they research thoroughly), they only have 1 male molly in stock.
I have a 10 gallon tank that I’m putting a few guppies in, and I’m wondering if the male would be okay in there. I don’t have any extra tanks,
I have three 5 gallon tanks for my single male bettas, I have a 100 gallon aquarium for my females, I have five 10 gallon tanks for my males with babies, and i have two 30 gallon fry tanks, one for males and one for females.
I also have a 150 gallon tank for my goldfish, and two 30 gallon hospital tanks (that are currently occupied).
I also have 2 other 10 gallons that I’m using for the baby mollies.
My whole house is filled with tanks, and I really don’t want to get another one. So yeah, would my male be okay in a 10 gallon with a few guppies?
How many guppies should I get if I’m keeping a molly in there as well, or should I just get the molly and risk him being very very lonely?
My females are:
3 dalmation mollies,
2 black mollies,
1 yellow dalmation molly,
3 silver mollies.
I already breed bettas and just stopped breeding goldfish, so I know what I’m doing.
I supply the store with all of their bettas, and I used to supply their goldfish.
I MAY buy another male if they come in, but I’m not 100% sure.
but I don’t want any more than 2.
I know that mollies are fine with guppies (i have some guppies with my females), I just want to know if the molly will be okay without any other mollies.
And this is my first time with mollies so I don’t know a ton about them yet.
I’m taking care of an Amazon parrot for a week, and she’s really aggressive. When I can actually take her out of the cage, she attacks the stick I take her out with. She barely lets anyone touch her. She lunges at me when I pass her cage, or even touch it. When I put her on the ground, she attacks my toes! HELP ME WITH THE DEMON!

I have a very energetic indigo/red delta tail betta fish. I really want to get him a bigger tank.
The tanks that I am debating on getting are the Tetra Water Wonders 1.5 Gallon, All-Glass Mini Bow 2.5 Gallon, or the Marineland Eclipse Explorer II. I hope to upgrade to a 5+ in the very near future, but I just can’t get a tank bigger than 3 gallons right now (5+ is over my budget now, and I don’t have the time to maintain a bigger tank).
I like the Marineland Eclipse Explorer II:
~It’s very stylish.
~Has a light.
~Has a BioWheel Filter, which is very good.
~Easy to maintain, just plug it in.
~No noisy air pump!
I don’t like the Marineland Eclipse Explorer:
~It’s pricey compared to other tanks of the same size. It’s only avaliable online.
~Once the filter breaks (the electrical pump inside), I will not be able to get a new one. If I get a new one, I will have to pay the price of the tank itself!
~The light can break easily, but this isn’t my biggest concern.
~It doesn’t come with decor. (+$$$$)
~The cartridges are pricey ( for 1)
I like the All-Glass Mini Bow 2.5:
~It’s avaliable at most stores near me, including the non-pet stores.
~It’s visually appealing.
~It comes with a light.
~Pretty cheap.
I don’t like the All-Glass Mini Bow 2.5:
~The light can break easily.
~The Whisper 10i filter is big. (Not a big concern)
~No decor. (+$$$)
~The filter may be to strong for my betta.
I like the Tetra Water Wonders 1.5 Gallon:
~It’s compact in size.
~Very cheap.
~Comes with decor.
~Has a drawer.
~Has a light.
~The cartridges are cheap ( for 2)
I don’t like the Tetra Water Wonders 1.5:
~The light isn’t that bright.
~The filter is loud.
~The filter cartridges need to be changed more than others.
~The air pump is loud.

Now, I need help deciding which tank to get.
I really, really, like the Mini Bow 2.5 (It would be my choice), but I must know if the current is too strong for a betta! I know you can adjust the current, but some people say that it’s still strong. I am not interested in getting the Red Sea Deco Nano Art filter.
So, I’m probably going to get the Water Wonders. But, it’s still loud, and I don’t like loud things. And people say the noise is not easy to muffle.
I wish I could get the Explorer, but it’s too pricey. It’s a very good tank, though.
I already have supplies: water conditioner, food, etc. I will have to get a heater, though. Probably the Hydor 7.5 watts Mini Heater.
Please tell reviews, experience, and if you recommend any of the above tanks. I will choose an answer that includes review, experiences, or recommendations as best. (I am NOT getting tankmates for my betta.) If there are any small tanks that you recommend, please tell!
Again, I want to know a little about the tanks from your perspective.
Thank you!
