they are begging

nope, my 29 and 55 turned out to be top fin. from petsmart

those are some beautiful cats @anewbie

kittens and cats are 2 different things. If you have children to entertain them, kittens are more fun . I adopt more adult cats, less curtain climbing and spray bottle action. I received an email with a petfinder post of a pair of kittens. But the post isn't here.

They do cause debris, but they are 100% recyclable, I have hard floors, so it's not hard to sweep up debris. I've had rope scratch post, their favorite though is low loop industrial carpet on the legs, doable with a hot glue gun and 2x4 or 4x4, base to mount it to. With my vet bills I am not...

I get the cardboard scratching pads. They sleep on top of sewing machine cabinets, my bed, the back of the recliners, the seat of the recliners, bed in the fish room. Rubbermaid tub by the fish room window. They have cat beds in several locations but in summer they prefer cool surfaces I think

You don't need uv unless you want super clear water, are fighting parasites or snails

they are tetras. tetras nip. Betta can't go in with them.

One of my males used to pee in the tub drain. I tried to train the cats to use the toilet back in the 90s but I never succeeded.

I never have nitrates in my ponds, but I have plants in all of them

I like clear. Now that it's 100 degrees out, only 3 of mine are clear, the big one is needing a filter clean. I use water lilies for shade, and lotus in one pond, letting me have cooler water that is clearer. I also have multiple waterfalls on the most sunny ponds to cool them.

Don't care. in 4 months I have to move everyone to a different tank while I do floors, but if they do fill it those will be pretty babies. I added 2 young females as well.

My prettiest female guppy has been in with the cories and around no males, and my aging but beautiful male guppy and she now have the entire 40 gallon tank with only an albino bristle nose for company.

Maybe it was sibling rivalry, but I keep my cat population down period. and the only reason I have 3 is that Whiskers only option besides my house was not good, and Jackson, well his kidneys will go one day I suspect, medicated food and all. And Cuchulainn is getting old and has a heart murmur.

10 Tank I don't ever have 2 female cats in the same house. I have 3 fixed males, no marking. That was not the case when I had a pair of sisters, gave one to a daughter and marking ceased.

2 feral cats at the moment. The Tortie, Queen of the Porch is a 2017 kitten who has been here since she was 3 months old. Once in a while I manage to get flea drops on her, and if she looks wormy I mix the meds in wet food. She is her own cat and quite fierce despite being small. I think when I...

I have never brushed my cats teeth, but my newest adoption does have some tartar and he's only a bit over a year old. Since he is a bit confused over boundaries I might get away with brushing his. I have never bathed any of my current cats. I used to bathe on arrival, to get mites and fleas...

I have original hardwood floors in most of my house, and oil based polyurethane is the correct tough coating for them. It also gives off very toxic fumes while curing. So moving all fish, sponge filters and air pumps in to the room without hardwoods, and with windows, shutting down the central...

and he's gone, going to check out the killifish forum. I can drop the BA tetras off into a large school on Monday. I just saw raising my own live food. With my schedule, I think I am going to move some of the guppies into the 40 gallon for now. I may not have time to look at all the info on...

I have a lady picking him up in 24 minutes, getting him in a bag

Mozambiques die at 55 degrees water temperature which is why they are allowed. They can't succeed in north Texas lakes, water too cold in winter, so they can't take over.

I have many hobbies. and I think in 2 or 3 years I'll be moving. Or I might be moving. sewing machines and even bees don't weigh quite as much or take the preparation of aquariums with live fish. So When I restock the 40 (and I think I found a home for the Colombian Tetra), it will be lightly...

I'd cut back on the sinking pellets and never feed more than once a day. Specific plants require different things, but when I tried an aquatic plant food with nitrogen what I was got was an algae bloom. @StevenF knows a lot about minerals and plants and helped me straighten my tank out. Sinking...

Gary, can shrimp be kept with killifish?

I have 3 cats. sorry. I didn't see that part. I don't have any uncovered tanks due to humidity buildup in the house fighting with air conditioning.

I had a fabulous fish store until 1999. I won't have any fish shipped in during our 100 degree weather. Ice packs fail, loading docks are hot, so I have several months to think about ordering. It is good to know who is reliable., thank you. Killifish are an interesting idea but I don't know if...

if no one takes him I have 4 ponds. My first choice is adoption. I don't think he's going to bully fish as large as my goldfish. The koi would probably eat him

I am having a problem. Of all the fish I bought last year the only ones left alive are 2 varieties of corydoras catfish (trilineatus and bronze - in separate tanks), 2 male guppies, 1 male GBR, and 4 (unless another has been killed) tetras from a private seller. The tetras are my fault, I...

note: when I got these I did try to find more columbian tetras in the shop that had the healthiest stock and he didn't have any.

But I can't get healthy tetras in North Texas. I can't get healthy fish, I am slowly backing out of the hobby I think. I think I will advertise locally and see if I can find a home for the columbian. I posted him in a fish exchange, to see if anyone else has a school. He's perfectly healthy...

it works for a short time in the filter. Zeo can be recharged in saltwater. Carbon cannot.
