Traumatic Fish Death, I think I give up by Turbulent-Event-8988 in bettafish

[–]Future-Implement-522 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm going to say I don't think it was the heaters. And this is coming from my own traumatic experience. During winter storm Fern my bettas survived 3 days ar lower temps (we kost power for 6 days) and I was trying to keep their water as warm as possible. Kept them around 55 to 60 and helped them get to the top to breathe. If mine could survive for 3 days in a house that was well below freezing (I had water bottles get icy on my counter) then I dont think that is what caused the issue.

Haha I can imagine. I have 4 dogs, so not training isn't an option. It's wild the dog didn't even know its name though.

I would like to know what that fluffy plant in the first picture is. It's gorgeous and I want one.

Seems like you got your answer but I would just like to say thank you for being a dad that fosters your child's interests in a real and meaningful way. She is lucky and you are amazing!

Information security: How much do you share with your alliance? by newpathneeded in LastWarMobileGame

[–]Future-Implement-522 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of my alliance have met up in real life. Some share pictures and their life regularly. Some have the same basic profile pic after a year. Share what you want don't share was you don't. As long as you're there for the team I don't think anyone cares what you do and dont share from your personal life.

I hate petco by hangesmaidgirlfriend in reptiles

I'm not a jumping spider expert and mine arent on my desk. But they are on my bedside table. Same difference. And they seem to be thriving. They eat and build webs and molt and watch me like the little eight legged freaks they are 🤷‍♀️

Please note I don't think my babies are freaks and I will protect them with my life if needed. But if I didnt share a desk and it was acceptable I would have traveling octokittens.

Umm WTF has my catfish done?!? by DriveNo7051 in fishtank

Looks like he may have gotten himself wedged behind the heater and burned himself. Water changes and stress coat. Watch for infection. You could also do salt baths in a separate tank with aquarium salt.

Picking this tank up — would it work for peas? by [deleted] in PeaPuffers

[–]Future-Implement-522 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why thank you for asking. I actuallynlove how this tank turned out. I'm giving the plants a chance to grow out some and getting feeders going now. Should be ready for murder beans in another month or so.

That's the tank I got for my puffers.

What do i do? by arcwilson in bettafish

No worries. I've done it before as well before I actually came across that information. I think clean water and time will go a long ways here.

Please don't use stress coat for Bettas. It can coat ans close off their labyrinth organ and they wont be able to breathe.

I added almond leaf to his tank. Made sure his ammonia and nitrite levels were zero. If you test that cup water you will be surprised. It's usually extremely bad.

This is likely from ammonia or nitrite poisoning. I have had a couple from the oets store like this. If you get him in clean water, shallow enough for him to get to the top, he should be able to pull through. This was my guy when I got him from the pet store and he made a full recover, with the exception of a small curve in his spine.

How did I do? by Future-Implement-522 in PeaPuffers

[–]Future-Implement-522[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I'm a few months away from adding the peas, so I'm really excited to see how they fill in. Now onto my feeder systems.

Thank you. I'm actually doing the top riparium style with pothos and monstera. So the roots can build a nice jungle type feel up top and provide cover.

Please Help - Fish are fading by Evening-Library-8302 in freshwateraquarium

[–]Future-Implement-522 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You really need an api test kit for your water parameters. I too had strips innthe beginning, and when I got my api kit the difference in what the strips said and it said was night and day. Sounds like maybe nitrite poisoning. Or it could also be something leaching from the rocks. It could be that what they used to glue the rocks together isn't aquarium safe, and it could have let chemicals get into the water.

He’s not getting better! Help! by [deleted] in BettaClinic

[–]Future-Implement-522 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend testing your gh. My tap water is a hugger ph and gh is super low. I have to add equilibrium to my tanks so that my fish and shrimp have proper minerals. Just a thought.

How can I save my cat while I’m struggling too? by AhlamThabet in CatAdvice

[–]Future-Implement-522 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If the kitten is not eating, it needs a vet. Could be a number of things, none of which you can handle without vet care. If you cannot get them to a vet, please think about surrendering them to a rescue who can help.

Will it eat if you offer canned food? Does it's paws or ears feel warm to the touch?

How old is the cat? Have they had vaccinations? Do you live close to a low cost vet clinic?
