    Is a Loyal Boyfriend Hard to Find?

    Thanx to everyone for their advice. I'm not in a rush, it's just that I get lonely alot, and that longing feeling comes along. I would like it to be someone who's a best friend first, I often hear that those relationships do well. I know everything will take time, and my GrandFather always tells...

    Dark Matter: Invisible, Mysterious and Perhaps Nonexistent

    I think I agree with you, flyingfish. Not trying to get religious or anything here, but I believe the soul is a form of energy, and although science hasn't exactly proven anything on this matter, I do think there are hints here and there. Example:There is a small electrical charge that keeps...

    What "Whisperer" are you?

    I must second leopardess. I've stumbled upon several types of wild animals this year who needed help in one way or another. Lets see, 2 baby birds(a crow and a bluejay), and 4 turtles(one baby cooter, a large slider, and a big softshell). In the past few years, I've also rescued a little...

    Water Changes in Planted Tanks

    I have had good luck with my tank so far, and the plants have been taking care of the nitrates, and other water issues very well for the past month or so. I've mainly just been topping off the water that evaporates, and it seems to be fine. I was just wondering if this is okay for planted...

    Tugging My Fishy Heart-Strings

    I've been in a self conflict about giving some or all of the swordtail fry to an lfs, because I want to go for an asian theme. I know I can't keep all of them, but how many would be reasonable to keep when I add the redtailed shark? I know this might sound ridiculous to some, but there's...

    Update On My Tank Since the Blackout

    Well, to start with, I've been using liquid fertilizers from Seachem for a few weeks now. Flourish, Excel, and Potassium are the ones. The plants seem better, though I think the hornwart was sucking up everything I put in there. Figures, I guess. I had to remove alot of it today, because it had...

    Advice on Asian Biotope

    Thanx, I actually did some research and found out that most of my plants are already of asian origin. Hornwart is growing like a weed. I need to get more crypts, java ferns, and maybe something else.
