Hey guys,

I'm writing a short story that involves a guy riding for months over wildlands and his horse getting seriously sick and possibly dying. Events take place from July to October. Could anyone suggest what sort of disease could horse contract in such an environment? I know about broken legs and there could be intestines problems, but I'd prefer some sort of disease.Rabid animal bite also came to mind.

I'm willing to google things thoroughly, but I'd appreciate some advice first, thanks.

Pic quite related.

thanks

Hey /aq/ I just got accepted a job at an aquarium shop. My experience is a 25 gallon koi pond I currently own and I had a 5 gallon freshwater tank when I was a lad.
Anything important or tips I should know?

Any idea what this dark spot could be? It started as a little dark spot that I thought was a little scab or something from rubbing om her wooden furniture. But now she has shed and the spot seems bigger. The scales that shed from the spot looked really weird, almost like a wart. Cancer? Scab? Damaged scales? Wart? I can take her to the vet but I bet people here are more familiar with beardies than a lot of vets in my area. Any advice would be appreciated

I'm pretty sure that was debunked

Also it was just another contrarian theory by Horner to try to live in the limelight again

Seriously fuck that guy
>>
>>2440585
It's still being debated. It makes sense, but it would flip a lot of what we currently know in paleontology upside down. It's a big line to step over and it would need a lot more consensus before being generally accepted as theory. Keep in mind most of the people saying it's been "debunked" are at least 27 and have grown up so proud of knowing all the different dinosaur species.

Any time someone uses the word "debunked", you can be sure what they're claiming has been debunked is true.

Old thread >>2432507

Discuss anything aquarium related here, including inhabitants, decor and issues.

Google is your friend.
Feel free to ask questions but know that there are a lot of resources out there that could answer your question a lot faster and accurately than /an/.

Make sure to include these things in your post before asking because we can't help you if we don't have the full picture:
-tank size (include dimensions, not just volume)
-parameters (ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, pH, GH, KH)
-any and all inhabitants + how long you've had them

Is a python no drip system worth the money? Are there any alternatives that will do the job just as well?

I ask this because I'm getting sick of doing water changes on my 50 gallon with a bucket, plus today I had to set up a 20 gallon to move the inhabitants of the 50gal into that so I can totally overhaul the 50gal and it took so much longer than it should have.

Go to Wal-Mart, buy a 5 dollar 50 foot water hose, go to home depot and get a water hose strainer adapter for your sink. Same thing, much cheaper. Just drain the hose into the tub or out a window.

Much more effective and reaches farther.
I've got both and only use the python thing when i need the gravel vacuum.
>>
>>2439872
What I did for my 45 gallon was buy a 25 litre fuel canister, and fit a hose connector to the lid. When I vacuum the tank, I've made a mark on the filter for where the water level is after I've drained 25 litres, so I just put the vacuum hose out of the window next to the tank until I've drained enough water. Then I lift the water can onto the windowsill, plug the hose in, lay the hose end in the tank, and tip the can over. Water changes only take a few minutes this way.

The reason I don't use something like the python system is because my tap water is extremely hard, so I need to mix a buffer. I just do that right into the 25l can.

F. My diamond dove died suddenly when he was only about 4-5 years old - nothing the vet did for him could bring him around. Birds are bros, but so delicate.

What a striking pattern she had on her wings. Is there a name for that? It's quite pretty.

I dont know if there is a name for it but yeah people noticed the wings a lot. They were so thickly outlined it looks like i painted her or something.
