How Do I Clean My Fish Tank Of Possible Chemicals?

well i just bought a 40 gallon fish tank i was cleaning it with water and then i could not get some stuff clean so my mother recommended that i use the magic eraser. i dipped it in the water that was in my tank. remember there is no fish in the water i was just cleaning it. i only used the eraser on the hood but i dipped it in the water and i squeezed it out to the water in the tank too but then i realized maybe this was used with chemicals? so now i don’t know how to clean it so there will be no chemicals in the tank so the fish will not die. how can i clean it?????? i think the magic eraser was used with bleach or something.

Missing Song May Not Exist?

Hi there,
(what lyrics that have been uncovered are at bottom – I encourage readers to check paragraphs before posting)
My wife and I came across an adult film – untitled – with the adult actress, ‘Stoya,’ in it. Well, though we enjoyed the video – we REALLY enjoyed the music that played during the video. The shocking part is that we’ve been trying to find the particular song and it is literally no where on the internet. We each have searched several lyric-generator-engines and lyric-search engines in hopes of finding the artist / song title, yet we continue to find nothing. After nearly three straight days of our efforts, we’ve gone to last resorts of posting on the infamous, “chan,” websites and have not found anything.
I would provide the link to the video, however it is against rules/regulations/guidelines. I am available to tell you that in the particular video, she is wearing black shoes and knee-high neon-blue fish net leggings. – Information for those who want to know what the video is like. (sick puppies, unless you’re looking for the video simply for the song!)
Lyrics are hard to follow – please keep in mind this is a slow and soft song that one could have time alone with their partner with. We’ve come up with so many artists that share these lyrics, its not funny. It’s not Celine Deon, nor Hilary Duff. Not Kenny-G style, more kinda like “Blue Foundation” or “Portishead”
(Note: “shadows” could be “shattered” / “wash” could be “wipe”)
* = for sure / very clear
“I wash my tears away in the shadow of your love”
“I wipe my tears away in the shadow of your love”
* “I can feel the beating of my heart”
* “I can feel the beating of my, beating of my heart”
Your help will get you remember in our books for a LONG time! We’ll be talking about the, “Oh you remember when we couldn’t find that song!” to our friends!

Please Help With Fish Questions.?

My sisters friend’s fish just had fry. They are guppies. She is only going to give me one. If it is a male i will buy 3 more females. So here are my questions. I don’t have a cycled tank, but i have a filter that is still running that i can remove from my other tank because i got a 50 gallon filter. So can i take that filter with bacteria on it’s cartridge and take some gravel from the other tank and clean it (not using hot water)? With the bacteria will i have to cycle the tank ( I would keep the fish in a smaller tank for 2 days maybe)? Also i am going to stock the tank with
4 guppies
6 neons
and maybe 3 cory cats or 1 britlenose pleco
Is this overstocked for a 10 gallon tank?

Two-way Mirror Aquarium?

i am planing on buying 15 red belied piranha in a 00 gallon aquarium however i know that these fish can be quite timid when they see movement in the same room as them, i was wondering if i put Two-way mirror film over my aquarium so that i could see in to the tank but the piranha couldn’t see out this would give the tank a more natural feel to the tank so they wouldn’t get disturbed by observers and behave more like wild piranha, can any one think of any problems with this idea or any other suggestions for timid piranha?

Everything I Need For My Pet Rat?

I know most of it – hammock, wheel, bedding, a big cage, toys. I’m pretty much prepared for anything I need with my rat. I know I need to buy it something to gnaw on[toys? or anything else? suggestions please] and to clean it’s cage at least once a week. It needs a buddy [right now I can only afford one but when I can I will get it a friend]. I know a lot and it’d be nice to get some tips on what it needs. I have a fish tank for now [seeing as I can only afford the essentials but not the cage] and it’s pretty big in length but not width, and I have a fan to put near it so it won’t suffocate.
Any tips on what I should get [besides the large cage] would be helpful.
How much would it roughly cost with the water bottle, bedding, food, the rat itself, hammock, wheel, and anything else I’m forgetting?

I Need Help Finding A College! Please Help! Majoring In Marine Studies!?

I love fish and marine animals because i think they are interesting and beautiful, but i hear marine biologists dont get paid well..is that true?..
And i also like art. but i hear they arent in high demand as far as teaching careers go.
I would love to be a marine biologist more than anything and work in an aquarium..how could i do that?..i would love to know. and i also like working with my hands and like to make fish aquariums and stuff.
But i also have a dilemma.. i live on long island and my family doesnt have the money to pay for an expensive college like Hofstra (plus i dont want to travel) or any of those good schools without a scholarship. I am a very good track runner and need a college that is in suffolk county and is division 1 or 2 in athletics and MUST HAVE A TRACK TEAM AND A MAJOR IN MARINE BIOLOGY OR MARINE STUDIES..Anything that has to do with marine life. pleaseee
