Anyone know anything about these? I tried looking on Google, but didnt coem up with anythig.

What types of fish are they compatible with how long do they get, what do they eat, and what type of water do they like? If you can think of anything else that I didn;t ask, please let me know.

I'd like to get a 20 gallon tank and a divider and devote 10 gallons to certain fish and the other 10 gallons to the other fish. Basically fish that don't get along with other fish, but ones that I can put in the same tank with a divider without any problems... Something like a betta on one side and some gouramis on the other. Got any ideas on how I can start this little project? What would you do? Do dividers really work? I love reading step by step ideas! Thanks to all that answer.

I have tried once a week and it is just become ammonia free on Sunday after I thought it finally completed the cycle. So, now, I measured it and the ammonia is rising again. I was thinking of doing a water change in a few minutes because my fish has been sitting on the bottom all night.

I work outside at a refinery. My idiot co-worker took a baby seagull and tried to move it to another area of my facility in hopes of getting the rest to stop attacking people on my unit. Unfortunately it made them all mad and now they attack anyone that gets with in 50 yards of their territory. I dont like birds. How do I keep them from attacking me when Im simply walking around?

My indoor rabbit never sneezed before and the last week he has been sneezing alot, he has also been shedding (thats normal) but i highly doubt he's alergic to rabbit hair. He's a mini rex, if that matters.

I have a 55 gallon reef aquarium with some soft corals and a number of fish.
My problem is that the plexiglass covering quickly gets coated with fog, and eventually a salt crust. The result is that a lot of light is being absorbed and scattered rather than penetrating into the tank.
Please offer suggestions on a better hood setup that will:
1- not quickly fog up
2- allow good light penetration
3- not allow my expensive fish to jump to their deaths

My cat has had a UTI for 3 weeks. The vet prescribed her with meds and at first they seemed to be working but now she is not using the litter box again and has blood in her urine. She has also been vomiting a lot. I took her to an animal hospital and they gave her some new medicine and also some pills for the vomiting. She still seems sick and there is still blood present in the urine. Is there anything else I can do to make her feel more comfortable or anything else I need to do??? PLEASE HELP

I have two baby red-eared sliders (they are about a year old). I got them a few weeks ago from a friend's mom who no longer wanted them. I take them out of their tank and put them in a smaller one to feed them so their tank doesnt get as messy. I usually feed them separately so I can moniter how much they are each eating. I do this every other day or so. The first week or two I had them they both seemed to be eating fine. Last week I was on vacation so I had a friend feed them. This week I have noticed that one of them is not eating like he used to. He used to eat about 5 or so turtle pellets, but the past couple times I've tried to feed him he has only eaten 1 or 2. Maybe I'm just paranoid and over reacting.. but I don't want him to be sick and not know it... I've read that loss of appetite is a sign of respiratory infection. I'm feeding him the same food he's always had and he has a basking dock and eat lamp and does everything else normal, so I dont know what could be wrong with him

If mother dog doesn't nurse will her milk sacs like... blow up? Sort of like if you don't milk cows they die.

What is a good type of food for pups to eat if they don't need to be nursed anymore?

My dog is two (no longer a puppy). But she continues to suffer from an involuntary behavior most often associated with puppies -- submissive urination. Every day I come home and she is happy to see me -- so she pees. (Note: I do NOT make a 'big deal' out of greeting her. But just seeing me sets her off.) When I get out the leash to go for a walk -- she pees. If I walk around a corner in the house and surprise her unexpectedly with direct eye contact -- she pees. Vet says nothing physically wrong with her. I have had her for 9 months. She may have been abused before I got her, but my training methods have been entirely gentle. I even took her to obedience training, but that has made things WORSE. She obeys, but pees on every single command (sit, down, come, etc.) This is an involuntary behavior, I understand -- but if it does not end soon, we are going to have to part ways! Help!

i found out that my pedigree dog, a yorkshire terrier, was playing in the backyard when a nextdoor chihuahua broke in and pregnated her. we were planning to set her up with a yorkshire stud but now, we can't do that. is there anyway to abort the puppies at a pet clinic or something without spaying her? this may sound kinda bad, but no negative answers please. she was our first puppy and we feel really bad. thanks
