What should I use for heating a leopard gecko's tank? If I use a under tank heater do I only put it on one side and leave the other side alone? If I use the under tank heater do I need to use a lightbulb?

Have the 3month old puppy have shorter nap so he'd sleep longer at night when everyone's in bed or let him sleep all he wants? If he does he's full of energy later at night.

I've picked up a stray kitten last night. I heard her mewing and she basically followed me. Because it was late at night and she was so small, I figured she'd probably been abandoned. She won't even eat solid food yet, only milk. Plus, she looked scared and was basically begging passer-bys with continuous mewing.
So I took her in.
The only problem is it's been about 10 hours now, and I don't know where she goes yet (I'm sure she must have left a gift or two somewhere by now). I wasn't prepared for this, so right now, I've filled a shoebox with potting soil. I'm going to go get some real litter in a couple of hours. Anyway, I've shown her the shoebox, but it hasn't been used yet and I don't think she gets it.
So what's the quickest way to get a kitten to understand the concept of litter box?

I have recently watched the movie "Pharlap" which was based ona true story. After finishing watching it, I realised that horse racing can be really cruel to the horses. I saw how hard they pushed the horse, made him sick, and how the crowd would 'poison' or hurt him if he lost or in fact even won a race. Does anyone agree with me? That horse racing is cruel?

I'm looking at setting up 5x2x2 tank but not sure what lighting to go for.

If i use flouresent tubes (comes with 4) will this be enough to keep corals, anemamies and fish or should i invest in arcadia series as these are quite expensive??

Hi I've bought a 5 foot Fish tank with 6 large Goldfish in it off eBay about 2 weeks, ive only ever had one tiny goldfish before who ive successfully put into the tank, but with him ive never treated the water, he was just in an old fashioned bowl (which im told now is a big fishkeeping faux pas!!)

Obviously as its been two weeks its time for a partial water exchange but ive been told to treat my tap water and test it, im pretty dumb and have no idea what to use or what im testing for can anyone tell me more, and where i can buy some treatments (preferably lower end of the budget though i have a teensy budget)
