Is it safe to use pH down and pH up to get rid of and increase the pH balance in an aquarium or is it safer to do it the old fashioned way?

What is a good fish to have in a 5 gallon Eclipse tank in my office that is low maintenance? *** Please don't suggest the typical species like Betta, goldfish, guppies, mollys, etc (yawn)*** I was thinking Arfican Cichlids . Dwarf or green spotted puffers are cool as well but they tend to be hard to maintain. Can anyone suggest a small, colorful fish with interesting character? Bumblebee Goby?

Hello,
I'm considering getting a German Shephard dog, and I have a few questions:

1.I have a LOT of cats. If I raise a GSP puppy with them, would cats be safe from him?

2.Are they relatively easy to be trained? Do they listen to you when you talk or do they jump and lick at you and not listen?

3. We were going to put the pup in the front yard, which is about 1/4 to 1/2 of an acre, is that enough room for him or her?

4.Is ok to keep him inside the house until he is a certain age and then put him outside?

Is there anything else I should know before I consider getting one? There are a few reasons why I want a GSP, a.) I would like a guard dog, b.)I want a walking companion, c.) I don't want coyotes to come up in my yard, d.) I want a loyal companinion that will listen when I talk and not lick my hands and stuff when I pet him or her. Is the GSP a good dog for me?

I am appauled at the number of people on YA who ask questions about sick pets. I am just astounded at how few people provide their animals vetrinary care. People will say in their questions " Don't tell me to take him to the vet, because I can't afford it".

My opinion: If you cannot afford to provide vetrinary care, you shouldn't have the animal.

And if the animal is sick, get off of the computer and take it to a ******* vet!

Is anyone else truly horrified??

About two weeks ago we discovered a golf-ball sized lump on my dog's front right leg. It just popped up overnight! We took her to the vet immediately and the ran some tests on the lump and she has cancer. She has x-rays tomorrow to see if it spread and if we should do a Mass Removal. I didn't get a chance to really talk to the vet for long otherwise I would have asked him. Is there anything in particular that could've caused this to happen? Something we did or didn't do? Or is it a lot like when humans get cancer and sometimes it just happens to certain dogs/animals?

My mom has a 55 gallon aquarium with an 8 inch Pleco and a bunch of other fish (mostly mollies and platys and two catfish) We feed the fish 4x daily and on the last feeding (around 9 or so) we drop in about 5 algae wafers in there, the two catfish eat some of the algae, but the algae eater scares them away from it and eats what he wants and then the cat's get to eat. Well, I have been noticing bits of mom's live plants floating around and I thought it was the Silver Dollars because they are herbivores, but today I noticed it was moms Pleco ripping peices off of the plant and eating it. Why is he doing that when we feed him so much algae wafers?

Hi all. I am looking for a 48 inch long light for my 75 gallon Freshwater aquarium. It is a community tank with Neon Tetras, Zebra Danios, ect. I would like to find the lights I saw several years ago with a purple sort of color to them, but everything I have bought recently (at PetsMart) is either plain white or a deep blue. Anyone have a link to this bulb or know what I am trying to refer to?? Thanks in advance!!

The Jellyfish has red spots on its back and little teeth looking things around the middle. It was found at Holden beach in the Carolinas. If I don't keep the Jellyfish, it will die because I can't put it back in the ocean without it stinging someone or getting washed up on the beach again.
Does anyone have tips on taking care of Jellyfish? If so, please answer!!!
Thanks,
