My female pittbull dog has attacked but not killed one of my male dogs. I have three male dogs but she always seems to go after the one dog. Will she calm down after being fixed or will i have to get rid of her?

I am starting a 120 gal. fish tank. It's been set up for 6 weeks fishless cycling and I'm now just feeding the bacteria 2-3 Tbs few times a week until I get fish. My question is I bought a Fluval FX5 filter for it with 1 bag of pre-filter and some carbon (I realize now that I didn't really need carbon unless I got dirty water but too late). The fish I want to get are 6 serpae tetra, 3 bala sharks, 6 angels, at least 8 cory cats, and possibly 2 rope fish several months later. Or should I get some more media before adding that many fish or go slower... There is tons of space left in filter but I'm on a tight budget to be able to afford the fish and a few more decorations. I need help figuring out time frame on which of the fish to add right away, which to wait a few weeks and when to add more media if it's going to be needed. With the media now and 3 Tbs every day I am getting near zero ammonia, zero nitrite and I have another question on here with my NitrAte situation.

I have 8 fish in a 29 gallon tank. 3 tiger 3 green tiger barbs and 1 pleco along with the bala. The bala will eat the food pelet and then spit it out. Is it because they need a certain type of food?

My dog just developed a redness on her lower lip after she had puppies. Does anyone know what this is? There is no swelling or bumps.

she bleeds and it is thin as water, which makes it harder to get the bleeding stopped when she cuts herself or something like that. I need a quick fix if there is one.

I am thinking about getting a goat and am wondering what is entails, what you need to know, and any general information anyone can tell me. I saw them on petfinder and have always wanted one. I have enough land, I just don't know anything about owning them, or if someone with no goat experience is a suitable owner for that matter.

I have an over weight coon hound. I've tried several recipes for healthy dog snacks from the internet. He hates them all. Does anyone have a good recipe for healthy dog treats?

I adopted a hamster over the weekend. When I put my finger near the cage, she acted desperate to get at me to bite. I tried slowly reaching into the cage later and she attacked. I've owned several hamster previously and none acted like this. Is there a way to train them not to bite, or is this something she will always do?

My neighbor has a 3 month old pitbull pup. Now that she is older he has put her out in the yard to live, there is a metal shed I have been told and a blanket but they are having trouble house breaking her so out she stays. That bothers me but what bothered me more was the last time I saw her, she looked bad and he said his friend was drunk and he had thrown up on her and he just left her that way and then he yelled at his girlfriend to give her a bath. I think he likes animals but he has a bad temper, and I'm not sure how the pup will do if it doesn't meet his expectations. You know, large, muscular, something to show off, she looks small, scared. When I held her she clung to me for dear life. I've been giving them treats for her and toys but I don't know how far I can go without offending them. What do you suggest?

My yellow angels have had this white crystal-like stuff on their fins and tails ONLY. nothing on the body yet, I tried to medicate them with ick medication and i didn't even see a slight improvement, i asked the petstore guy and he said that it should have caused some improvement, but if not then it should be fungus...
I am not too convinced. they are always swimming at the bottom, they get scared and starteled when they see me(they used to come near me thinking of food in the past) they don't eat as much. they aren't as active and I am worried.
i started treating them with the fungus medication yesterday after i did a water change and removed the carbon filter....
If anyone has any clue what is going on with them please let me know.
PS: they only have the crystals on their fins and tail and extremities. an di tried the ick studd and saw nothing with that.
Thank you for your help in advance
