Nothing, because you already have too many fish in there. Or at least you will soon once they grow some more.

In any case definitely not a fire eel, they get enormous.

Get another kribensis.

Entomologist here, it is a moth. Where are you located, as that can narrow the field quite a bit and I could tell you the species.

Nevermind, I got it, it's an Oleander Moth (Syntomaida epilais). Lovely moth.

You will never get rid of them completely. Not unless you fumigate the shit out of the whole house.

They will helpfully take care of most other household insects for you though so there's really no reason to remove them.

My fiancee is interested in herbalism as a hobby, as well as learning about local plants in general. I'm thinking about getting her gifts related to these interests.

Does anyone know of a good intro book to herbalism (preferably one with a somewhat scientific rather than new age bent) or resources for learning about local flora? We live in Kentucky if that makes a difference.

If she's serious, then bottles and jars are really nice. Maybe some bottles of everclear.

This guy has good books

Can anyone explain to me how guide dogs work? I know that dogs are smart etc... but the concept of a dog able to help a lonely blind man in his daily issues really blows my mind.
I mean, if I tell the dog "Supermarket" he will take me there?

I know i might sound stupid but I really know nothing about this argument.

Kind of yes and no, the dog couldn't take their owner to a location unless they had been trained specifically to go to that place- they have no concept of what makes a supermarket or a chemist or whatever, and they're obviously incapable of understand street signs and signs on shop fronts. Once they've learned where a particular location is, they can take their owner directly there on command, but they can't find their way to new or unfamiliar places, the owner needs to give the dog directions and the dog then assesses whether it's safe to go that way.

So basically what they do is get their owner to their destination safely as they're taught how to take a safe, obstruction-free path and react to certain obstacles and potential threats that might be in their way, like stopping for traffic and stairs and such. They're basically a better version of the cane that lets their owner move more quickly and confidently. They can also do jobs around the home like fetching mail, but that's more for people with mobility issues as blind people can usually navigate their own home without any issues.

I'm going through a pretty depressing moment right now. Two babies were rejected by my diamond finches and I caught them trying to kill them. I had to sacrifice one of them because it had a very serious wound that he was not going to survive And now I have one baby left. I've set up a clean cotton nest with a heat source but I have no idea how to feed him. Please help me, /an/, google doesn't help

For right now it probably couldn't hurt to give him generic baby bird food like pic related. How old is the little guy?
Also for the future, I was told by a finch keeper to raise Society finches alongside any other finches you're breeding because Societies will raise any rejected babies of another species as their own. Now I don't know how true that is as I haven't bred finches of my own yet, but hopefully another finch breeder can say for sure.

>>2022112
I've given him oatmeal with water (dusted, of course) and he seems to be eating now, I'll buy this once the stores open. Also I can't put this little guy with anyone other than their parents, who have rejected these 2 and 2 other eggs that were yet to hatch (they layed 4), even if I made sure not to intervene with the nests as to not disturb the parents. Thank you for your advice.
Also, little correction, they're not diamond finches, they're zebra finches, they're just called diamonds in my native language.

Hey /an/

I'm about to move out of the house I share with an acquaintance, he's the landlord, and move into a new place. When I moved in he had a feral cat living outside that he would feed. However, once I moved in he stopped feeding it, and the cat began to get thinner and thinner. Eventually I took pity on it, and began buying food. This guy would occasionally feed the cat with the food that I bought, and when we ran out after about the 3rd time I asked him to get the next package. He refused, and said that he was going out of town and that he is just gonna let it fend for itself, mind you this is for about a month and a half.

The cat is very thin and it obviously relies on getting fed, so my problem is this: I want to take the cat with me when I move out, but he has shown in the past that he is very adamant about it staying here even though he doesn't want to take care of it.

Does /an/ think I'm within my rights to take it with me when I move? Also I'm weighing whether or not I should tell him to go fuck himself or just take it and plead ignorance if he ever asks.

Plead ignorance, he doesn't give a shit and it's legally no ones cat.

Take it and get it microchipped and round of shots so it doesn't spread any diseases to any other cats that may be around the new place.

Which is the best odor controlling litter out there? I'm having guests coming in to stay and I need the odor control. Money is not a problem.

How come whenever I look up baby pigs, I always get pics/videos of these dumb micro pigs and not normal farm pigs? These micro pigs aren't nearly as cute as "normal" piglets and I don't get why they're so widespread.
