Not recommended because bettas are tropical and need warmer water while goldfish require colder water due to their need for a large oxygen content. Also goldfish excrete alot of ammonia and bettas cannot handle that. Another reason is goldfish will swallow fish small enough to fit in...

I got a newsletter not too long ago stating the dates of the show and swap and whats going on in the club because i joined it last year. They have meetings at the madrid library but dont have the time to go, perhaps someone who attends them can bring up the site issue or offer to make...
Soon to be a virginia resident and i could use some help. I will be moving to Chantilly in northern virginia.
I want to keep my bunnies and poultry. The only way i can though is if i find someone who will let me board them. I would like to find someone no further then an hour from Chantilly...
and i want to keep my bunnies and poultry. The only way i can though is if i find someone who will let me board them. I would like to find someone no further then an hour from Chantilly, VA. I plan on supplying my own food, bedding, hay, and cages as well as traveling every day to take care...
One of my roosters is swollen too, he was normal yesterday but there was -31 degrees out last night despite them having a heat lamp in the coop and loads of straw. Should i bring him inside? The other 3 roosters are fine aswell as the hens and guineas and ducks.
I would only do 1 gecko. 2 males will fight. Females might get along but there is always the chance that one will stress the other out to the point of death. Gender doesn't matter as far as personality go, i have a awesome male as well as awesome girls that don't mind handling. I find that...
I raise my own feeders for my snakes. I used to feed live and when my boa grabbed the rat, it bit her lip causing her to bleed. It only takes one bite to the head or neck of the snake to kill it. Or the snake could lose an eye or develop a nasty abscess from a rodent bite.
I just acquired...

An adult mouse was left over night in that ball pythons tank. The full story is on proexotics website. Ball pythons are known to be finicky eaters. I have one that won't eat all winter. It isn't my temps. He is perfectly healthy and starts right back up eating on a regular basis in...

Yeah, that doesn't seem normal. What the heck kind of rat were they feeding it, was it the proper size??
I do feed live, and regretted it for one snake, who struck badly and got nicked several times....but my other python seems fine. Usually, even if they don't want to eat it, my...
Thats a good way to get a dead or chewed up snake. When feeding live prey, the event needs to be strictly monitored to intervene when the rodent decides to chew on the snake. Also if the snake doesn't eat in 15 minutes the rodent needs to be taken out and try again a week later.
This is why i...
I hatched them out and raised them for my bettas.
What i did was get a 2 gallon tank with an air stone and i used Instant Ocean synthetic sea salt, about 1.5 cups of salt per 1 gallon of water. For food i gave them Liquifry baby fish food. It took about 2 weeks to get them to adult size.
I...
Just got off the phone with my brother and i told him the suggestions so far and he is going to stick with the vet and feed her the turkey and rice for 4 days to see if the poo becomes more solid and if it doesnt then he is going to get a second opinion. If it does become more solid he is going...
My brother bought this black lab pup from a byb. Apparently it has all its shots. It was on some crap food that the breeder was feeding the dogs. I convinced them to get it on a better food. They are feeding it Taste of the Wild and all was going well. Normal poops n whatnot. Then comes...

There are instructions on the bottle to dose a smaller aquarium. Ive used it and we give out samples of it at the store for people with green water problems. It is perfectly fine to use and the stuff works.
It doesn't kill the algae spores, it makes it clump together for manual...

There is this chemical called Tetra Pond Water Clarifier formally known as Aquarem. It would have cleared it up in 2 days. It takes care of the cloudiness but it doesn't solve the cause of it so you need to figure out what caused it in the first place. Also covering the tank up for 4...
