I have a large pond (about 10' across about 5' deep at the center) in my backyard. I had two larger goldfish, two smaller ones (the only offspring to survive last years' spawning), and three koi. This spring they had a major orgy and about two months ago I discovered about 100 small dark gray (mud-colored) babies...about 50 left when I counted today (the seagulls love my house). About half a dozen have turned mostly gold (small patches of black on their fins still), one turned white, and about 20 have started showing patches of orange, gold, and/or white color. But I'm confused by one in particular. The ones that have already developed color are about 1.5 to 2" long...most that size have at least some color. Most of the really small ones are still gray, but there are about 10 that are about 3" long (and one big boy that's at nearly 5" long) that show no signs of developing color. Why are there so many sizes and why haven't the largest ones changed color yet?

Hello, i was watching the critters in my saltwater aquarium today, when i noticed a small "what appears to be" a feather duster pertruding from a small tube, at the bottom of one of my live rocks.. is this a good sign? i know he was not there before or, at least, i have not seen him before...could he have been seeded there from something else? it is only about 1/4 inch(or less) long when extended, and just looks like a small tube when in hiding...kinda looks like a white palm tree when extended....
thanks, skip

How does this sound for a 20 gallon with fake plants? The only problem I can see is the Hatchetfish being unhappy b/c of them being schoolers. What do you think? Is there room for more neons and hatchets? Exactly how many more?

~3 Hatchetfish
~ 6 Neons
~3 Otocinclus (ottos)

I have a manx cat that is about 4 years old. This year she is really bad with fleas. She now has a skin infection due to teh fleas. My problem is she is highly alergic to flea treatment I have tried frontline, and I can't remember what teh other was I got from teh vet, I also have tried hatz and seargeants over the counter.
Seh has nearly died on me 3 times with her allergic reactions.
The vet now says just bath her once a week to kill the fleas.
Any suggestions of anything else I can do i have gotten her a "cone" collar to stop her from teh constant licking and scratching.
PLEASE HELP ME HELP MY BABY

There are 15 Blue Shubunkins, 7 Comets. They all swim in a shoal together and don't seem to know there are any different types. They all live in a 245 gallon pond. I am new to this site so I'm really updating on previous questions!
