My Fish Died. I Am Not Ready To Try Again Right Away, Need Advice On Cleaning The Tank.?

By on Thursday, December 30th, 2010 | 1 Comment

He was my beloved little betta, and he broke my heart because I tried so hard for him. I am pretty sure he had swim bladder disease, then he got these white sores which I tried to treat with betta fix. I don’t have it in me to get a new fish right now, but I don’t want to get rid of the tank yet either, have bought so much equipment for the tank. I have “safe and easy” aquarium cleaner spray from Aquarium Pharmaceuticals. Can I just clean everything with this for storing the tank/decorations?

Need Ideas For Activity/lab To Do About Kidney Anatomy And Its Functions!!! Gr.12 Bio?

By on Thursday, December 30th, 2010 | No Comments

Hi need ideas that help my classmates understand the kidney anatomy
such as: medulla, cortex, pelvis, renal artery, renal vein, aorta, inferior vena cava
also part of urinary system: ureter, bladder and urethra.
i need like good things to do for about 40 min that will make everyone in my class participate.
One of my ideas was based from my textbook and it talks about a semi lab about
making a model of a filtering excretory system using funnel, aquarium charcoal, beakers, water and some other stuff.
Please i need help with more interesting activities to do for my class to participate in and its for REVIEW NOT TO TEACH THEM SOMETHING NEW.
it has to apply to the environmental and biotechnology somehow. So i need to add APPLICATION AND INQUIRY QUESTIONS OR SOMETHING!!
P.S. im not a teacher im doing like a presentation/project to review the kidney anatomy xD
Thanks alot!!

Help With Aquarium Question Please?

By on Thursday, December 30th, 2010 | 3 Comments

Hello. I have a 22 gallon tank and am saving money for a much larger one to buy in the near future. I have a 3 year old angel fish, a dojo loach, an iridescent shark and a flying fox shark. All have been tank mates for many months now have thrived a lived peacefully. Today I added a catfish that was a panda something and a rainbow shark. The guy who sold them to me said they would all get along but the rainbow shark is sort of picking on my flying fox shark… they are about the same size but the flying fox is a bit bigger. they keep kinda nipping at one another and bumping into into each other. Is this normal or should I take the rainbow shark back?

Angel Fish Laying Eggs!?

By on Thursday, December 30th, 2010 | 4 Comments

Ok i have a 36 gal aquariam and keep 2 angels, 2 gouramies, a blk ghost, and 2 german rams. My smaller angel started laying eggs tonight on the filter intake tube! it freaked me out at first, but then i got excited. The larger one fertalized them, and they are guarding it now. Im a little worried about what to do from here. Do i take the filter out and transfer it to another tank? i have a 10 gal for a spare in case any of my fish got sick. or do i leave it and hope nobody eats them?? im new at this, so any tips or tricks would be helpful! thank u!

i really need to lose weight desperately and im so sick of being fat & overweight!!! Please tell me your opinion & HELP!
I will only be drinking green tea & water & if I want 1 diet soda at lunch
I will be doing 30 mins cardio every single day (Jillian Michaels DVD)
Im 23yrs old 5’5 250lbs :(
I went food shopping today and plan to eat really clean & healthy
this is a sample of my diet plan
Breakfast:
1 egg, , a slice of low fat or fat free cheese, 1 apple or a cup of strawberries(or whatever fruit), 1 slice light 35 calorie wheat bread , 1 tsp light butter
Lunch:
4 oz grilled chicken breast w/ 2 cups romaine lettuce, tomatoes, 1-2 tbs light salad dressing (also vinegar is a natural appetite suppressant and lemon juice is a natural diuretic), 1 slice light 35 calorie wheat bread, & another piece of fruit,
Dinner: Can be the same as lunch or maybe like a chefs salad (low fat low sodium turkey lunch meat, hard boiled egg, low fat cheese & lots of veggies& 1 tbs light dressing NO CROUTONS!) or like grilled or baked chicken or fish with veggies, a big salad & 1/2 baked potato or corn
-OR-
A healthy choice meal with a salad…the only thing with them is they’re high in sodium so just up you water intake that day& limit them to 3 a week :-)
so what do u think? I AM DESPERATE!

What Are Some Home Remedies To Cure Fin Rot And Hardened Fins?

By on Thursday, December 30th, 2010 | No Comments

My goldfish has really hard fins and fin rot at the same time, im not entirely sure that the hard fins come along with fin rot cause this is the first time ive ever seen hard fins on a fish. I already tried putting aquarium salt into her tank, along with a 20% water change every week and a half, i clean the filters to every week or every other week, and i try real hard to keep the tank clean. She’ll get fin rot and then it’ll go away but this time it just keeps getting worse and ive done everything i did before *clean everything, did a 20% water change, and put some new aquarium salt in* but she doesnt seem to get any better, only worse. Is there any thing i can do for my fish?
I’ve tried to put epsom salt in *cause she also has pop eye* and it helped cure her pop eye, could that be making her fin rot worse maybe?
