Thats a fucking pitbull

Rosy red minnows. Don't use ph tablets, they cause a crash.

pH 7 is neutral, not basic. Most (70% or so) of living organisms can chill between 6.5-7.5, but I know jack about tetras.
If the tablets you used were buffers, then anon is right, they could lead to a sudden spike in pH when the fish excrete ammonia which has a high pH.

>>2316281
Oh, thank you! I added a very big chunk of driftwood, and today the pH went down by 0.2 points, to 6.8. The water is brownish so I hope it is the driftwood-- but I'll keep monitoring.

Right now I just have 3 ghost shrimp and 4 snails in the tank. Will I be able to cycle the tank with them inside? I established the tank 24 hours ago.

>>2315549
Probably, unless it's dead. Also how do you even know it's a stray and not an (((outdoor cat)))?

It's the weekend and that's somebody's cat

>leave shit lying around outside for days
>still claiming ownership
That's nobodys cat, op, as evidenced by the fact that it's wandering freely in excess of a week

Not a rabbit owner but I had a similar issue with my dog. Some days were better than others, and he definitely had swelling and was producing more eye gunk than usual. Vet said that the 3rd eyelid was inflamed (likely due to allergies) and to use artificial tears and gently massage the corners of the eyes to help moisturize and bring down swelling (and make him more comfortable).

It's not a major issue, but it does require some treatment, and in bad cases may require surgery. I'm also not sure how easy it is to use eye drops on a rabbit, or if that's even the issue, so unfortunately the answer is probably vet.

Try saline eye drops. She might have something lodged under it. My old rabbit had something similar and after the eye drops I ended up pulling out a rather large piece of hay.

my rabbit tries to bite me a lot

let me guess; a bull type or a german shepherd
it's your fault for leaving your pets unattended too

>>2315880
Why?
>You made the fucking thread, who else is going to supply the backstory you lazy faggot?

We need more info.

>>2315910
Also huskies. I've heard more huskies killing other animals than I have any other breed.

>tw I started watching him in June 2016 before he became so popular

I kind of dislike how he's always jumping around pointlessly for his intros. His persona is directed towards kids, and he already bailed pretty hard. Not that kids should be in a safe box, but like dude, you're not someone who can do parkour settle the fuck down before you do something retarded again and actually hurt yourself.

Pretty jelly he got to see the baby sloths.

>>2312145
He acts like a childish buffoon and pretty much just runs around doing stupid shit. So, yeah, our guy.

quote on quote ""siamese""
japery, The Breed.

>when you've only ever heard it and get it kinda wrong because you didn't apply critical thinking

It's quote / un-quote. As in, quotes at the beginning and end. Do you also say "mute point" and "nip it in the butt"?

Siamese are the best cats.

>>2310300
cats are garbage and a diamond dozen

Bump, anybody want to give me a hand? I tried to look at some owl species but they all have the same color of plumage.

yeah, I put like 15 worms in the planter, and xhe is the only one that likes to be underwater. I'm surprised they are so active during they day.

he's a big guy

Anyone hear about that shaved orangutan called Pony they found in a brothel?

wut

Absolutely retarded.

>>2312281
Any type of painful alterations solely for asthetics on a pet is ridiculous, and could possibly be considered abuse.

absolutely shitty thing to do

but it does bother me how half the people I've seen be "outraged" over this are perfectly fine with ear cropping and tail docking even though those are over all worse for the animal

>>2315696
>but if I have the landlord meet him and see that he's just an extremely friendly/laid back blind old dog that spends most of his time sleeping, do you think they would be willing to possibly make an exception
some are more likely than others but obviously it can't hurt.

also, regarding vet records--contact your vet and see if they'll write a letter for you 1) vouching for his temperament and 2) either downplaying the pitbull stuff or straight up saying "lab mix" instead of pit mix.

a lot of the time, apartments ban pit mixes not because of their personal biases but because of their insurance company. pits are an insurance liability for most of them. push comes to shove, you can see if paying a small extra deposit will sway the landlords' decision. the worst you can get is "I'm sorry, we just can't".

yes. if you come across as a clean, quiet reasonable person and your dog is the same, many landlords will make an exemption for you, especially if you are honest up front

they have already told me that they can't change his records. maybe it's because I got to a VCA vet? idk. but they all love him there, no matter how much they have to poke or prod him he's been an angel with them. Two of the vets and several vet techs already told me they would be "character witnesses" so to speak

would it be a good idea to call the apartment management and explain this to them before I even apply? or wait until they ask me about him?

Someday the code to sync our human minds with the Schumann resonance which permeates the great blue orb will be ready and we'll be able to leave our pitiful bodies and live forever in the wired.
