I sadly did sign a confidentiality agreement, that's literally one of the first things you sign in orientation!

I did reach out to one new outlet CTV news but have not heard any replies. I have to watch as up here the College of nurses will revoke a license for breach of confidentiality and my workplace will likely fire me if it gets out that I spoke to the news. I have revealed no names or locations...

another article states he donated the hand sanitizer as he is under investigation fr price gouging. Good.

So, here's my Covid 19 story (as of Saturday). I work as a nurse (as some of you likely know), I work in a unit with elderly with dementia. Saturday, I got report and was informed that one of my patients had a temp of 39.6 and was given tylenol with effect. No other indicators given. I assessed...

I feel kind of dumb that I actually googled this..

Up here it wasn;t quite so bad. Plenty of water (we have 5 lakes here to get it from if need be) but the TP and anything disinfectant was all gone. I bought some flushable wet wipes for the kids (lots of those left) as they were getting all panicked about "what will I wipe my bum bum with". I...

Lots to eat there! MmmM those bandaids look tastey, Especially the used ones you can use them to make tea with! Or you can milk a goat (sex pending).

No I didn't :cool: LOL

.. folks, I can sum this up to this. We had an URI (upper respiratory infection) outbreak in my facility last year This was a pneumonia outbreak, and I contracted this. I was out of commission for nearly a month as a result, and at one point felt like I was dying as a result of it. It was...

If you were to get it twice though, you would have developed some level of immunity to it thanks to your immune system. Still not a good prospect to be a carrier for others.

eww? There will always be food. But I made a comment to a lady who was buying all frozen foods.. tv dinner type things, why are you buying all this stuff? She stated that "if it gets really bad then we'll have a stockpile". I said.. and if it gets really bad, who's going to keep the electric...

yes, that is the problem as people think they "have a cold" then go and visit their elderly mother in a LTC home. That would be devastating. You can also carry this virus for up to 14 days before ANY symptoms appear. Some models even state that you can incubate it for as much as 24 days....

umm.. no! my grey hairs will be multiplying by the minute.

Merkel stated that it's likely that 70% of Germans are likely infected with Covid19. Makes you wonder...

Our Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, is in quarantine as his wife has been confirmed to be Covid19 positive.

amen, the stuff reproduces like mad and you'll soon have a 1" thick carpet across the top of your tank.

oops, forgot the link : https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/

incorrect: USA 2,030 +333 41 31 1,958 10 6.1 you have 2, 030 cases UP 333 from this morning. 41 deaths. You can track the data on this pandemic with this app, which gives real time updates on rates of infection per country (given they actually report that data ie...

Ok, so keep in mind I am a nurse who works in a virus hostile profession, so my answers below 'may' differ slightly than the average citizen. What is the present state of the virus in your country or state? These are the current stats for Canada; as a whole we are faring well and have...

I'd agree, snail eggs. I've had clusters on my glass at times.

I was enouraged to get a few rams for my tank instead of these, and they seems to quite passive in comparison to the tetras I had. We'll see how they go, but they are stunning looking fish for sure.

That was the issue, the store also stated them being peaceful 'like cardinals'. I would have reacted faster bot only noticed their behavior last night after coming home from work. They would likely work well in a tank with a large shoal and no other species.

OK, wanted to add these nice little buggers to my tank, as I 'figured' they were nice looking and would compliment my others tetras nicely in both look and size. BUT, they are bastards! Since added they are beating the snot out of everyone, even the Mollies which are 3 times their size. Since...

I have not personally tried doing this, but have some interest in trying at a later stage. I seem to be watching a lot of vids ect not at all related to what I am trying to do. Somehow I was looking for info on diatom filters and ended up there watching his vids... I just ordered some brine...

isn't peroxide used for this treatment as well, given that the byproduct of peroxide is O2?

Current fishes: fancy guppies, Mollies, Swordtails, x2 cories, x1 dumbo beta, rainbow fish, school of neon, cardinal tetras and black phantom tetras, x1 bristlenose pleco, and x4 pencil fish. I also have a small colony of cherry and ghost shrimp mucking about down below. All housed in a...

This fellow on youtube does a pretty good video on how to breed Neons (other fish too) which is really easy to follow. It's in parts, but there's a crucial step that you apparently need to assure they are feeding when they are fry.. good watch anyways. Enjoy.

I should add, it seems Cardinals are a bit cheaper than neons in my LFS, they regularly have sales on Cardinals (this may be as everyone wants the neons).

2 cents from an amateur and from absorbing what I've read in forums. I have read that cardinals tend to be more hardy than neons, as neons are apparently quite interbred whilst cardinals are apparently more 'wild'. I'm not sure if this in fact true yet, as I have both in my tank and they seem...

you light does look a bit dim in the pics, are you sure the bulbs are giving enough light in the correct spectrum? When I first got plants the tank I had originally came with flourescent bulbs, and the plants did well for a short period before dying off like yours are doing. I retried this but...

I curently have a java fern which was planted in the gravel and has taken off. In fact it has started 3-4 small side plants that are shooting up beside the parent in the gravel. This java fern is what about a year old now?

Well, this may not seem like a newbie question but it is ;) I have done a bit of reading on tropical tanks recently, and to 'clean & polish' a tank I read that diatom filters were amazing. I have a bit of cloudy water, and recent additions seems to shows some spot which appear to be ich. I have...

My name is Trevor and I live in Ont, Canada. I have had fish off and on through my life buy have just started to get into this hobby seriously. I may be picking a few brains along the way, hope you have some grey matter to spare ;) I am a nurse in my profession, and also run a small online...
