    Need help with magnum 250 canister

    How often do you use the carbon? How often do you use the carbon? Do you use it only after you put medication in the tank? The person who had these filters before me had it chuck full of carbon. I think they also used to breed chilids. i have a breeders nest too. Not sure if I'll use that

    Do You Talk In Your Sleep?

    all the items you mention - talking in your sleep, walking in your sleep - are sleep disturbances. If you wake up and dont feel like you slept, you should maybe see a sleep specialist. Just a thought.

    thinking of getting a fire eel?

    The internet says minimum 50 gallon tank. Also says its a semi agressive fish, so best kept with other semi aggressive fish. But I'm sure there are experts here that know what is best. I'm sure they can help better than I can.

    Anyone know what kind of spider this is?

    I've been bitten by brown recluses also - 3 times - when I lived out West. The only thing I remembered is they had really long legs. Same as wolf spiders. I still have scars from where I was bit. I was told I'd need a skin graft, but I dont think the scars are that bad. I've seen a black...

    recommendations for flea treatment for a dog

    I had a cat that was allergic to all flea products. I wound up using a flea comb. It did catch all the fleas. I put flea powder where she slept and made her a new bed after I combed all the fleas out.

    Here's why they should ban chainlink fences.

    I am not a big fan of chain link fences. Not because of this fish picture, but many kids and animals have been hurt by chain link fences. As for the fish, if it was really stuck in the fence, it would have died anyway. It would have landed on land without the fence, and would have died from...

    What's Your Most Frustrating Tank Experience?

    The only problem with the spray bottle is, it works when I'm here, but when I'm not here, the cat is smart enough to figure out there is no one to squirt her with the bottle. So I use the squirt bottle when i'm here, and when I'm not, duct tape.
