URGENT i need help with my goldfish!?




18months ago my friends bought me 2 goldfish for no reason. they gave me all the stuff, fish bowl, gravel, plastic plant, dechlorinator, crystal things, food etc. I kept my fishies for 18months, they were the best pets ever and i was totally ignorant to the fact that keeping them in a bowl was wrong coz they were always so happy :(
when my fish started showing signs of ammonia poisoning i did lots of research and found out everything,i straight away went and bought a proper tank (6gallon, its all i could afford, which is fine for the 2 fishies that i had) but read that i had to let it cycle! my fishies died a few days later :( on my birthday, it was so sad. i planned to get 2new fish to put into my tank but i wanted to give the tank 3weeks to cycle, its been 2 so far, but today my stupid friend turned up with 5 goldfish! said she thought i was lonely! i had to put them all into the tank and now im afraid they will die!i still have the fishbowl, should i put two in there? what do i do??
I would put them in a fishbowl only until i found someone to give them to or bought another tank but would it be better to put the two little ones (not even an inch long) into the fishbowl so that i dont overcrowd and overload the tanks filtration system? I’m so stressed about it, i cant handle having more fish die :( my local petshop says they cant take them and i dont know anyone else with a tank, except the friend who bought the 5 fish and clearly she doesnt know anything about them (shes killed lots of goldfish!)

please help, what would be best?







There is a substance growing on top of the mulch in my rose garden. It first looks like light mustard or, sorry to be gross, light yellow spots of vomit. they range in size from 6 inch diameter to 12+ inch diameter. At first we thought that an animal may have been sick but the spots keep popping up. They start out looking like a dried liquid and the next day they expand and look like a puffy light yellow foam about half an inch tall. The sun will beat down on them for a day and they dry up and deflate. The whole process only takes a few days. The garden is in full sun in zone 6. Any ideas will be appreciated! Thanks a bunch!!! :)




I'm wondering if my Monroe is healing properly…?




I just got it pierced a few days ago and I was told that when cleaning it, I was supposed to use lots of this cleaning stuff to rid the piercing of the crusty build up (white blood cells moving to the wound), but there hasn’t been any build up; and the way my piercer put it, it sounded like there was supposed to be lots. Does this mean it’s not healing well? Or is this a good thing meaning I keep it pretty clean? I’m not real sure. It sounds like a dumb thing to ask but any help is appreciated, thanks!




Does this sound like I strained my neck?




I was trying do do a pull up, and then I felt a sharp pain on my neck, so I dropped. I think I might have strained it. I can’t turn my head left or right or it will hurt. I also have to position it in awkward manners for it to not hurt. At worse, I fear it may be a fracture of a neck bone. But hopefully it’s just a strain. I don’t have health insurance right now so I’m not sure what to do. I’ll definitely be trying to get health insurance from now on.

Does this sound like a strained neck and do you think it will heal in a few days? I’m having trouble sleeping, because I usually move around when I sleep, but now I can’t without my neck hurting.




Jelly crystals and worms…Is this possible???




I have this bowl of jelly crystals (those small balls which expand when you put them in water) and since a few days I haven’t changed their water. So today, while I was going to do so, I noticed some really weird organisms who have made my jelly crystals their home. They are really tiny, barely noticeable to the naked eye. Their even finer than baby’s hair and are transparent. So, I just wanted to know what these things are and how they came to grow in the water…




What is the bump right next to my fingernail?




Sometimes I get this bump on the bit of skin right next to my fingernail. After it "grows" for a few days to a week, it hardens over and the skin becomes slightly clear and there’s green stuff inside. As gross as it sounds, I pick the harden skin off and remove the green stuff. Within a week, the finger’s healed over.

I apologize for the child-like detail, but that’s really the best way I can describe it.







My sheep dog is ten months old I checked where they had removed his tail today and it is pinkish and there are still stiches present. It didnt seem to bother him but I am still worried. Does this sound normal?
The dogs tail was docked at a few days old and ten months later i just notice it is pink and there are a few stitches there still







The last few days it seems like sometimes when I watch a video from You Tube, somewhere in the middle of it there will be a loud noise something like a chime. Does anyone know what that is?




How to kill time before my time runs out?




I plan on drowning in a vat of acid and Bengal tigers on Thursday.
The thought then occurred to me that I have a few days left to waste.
How do you suggest I spend my time ? Other than asking pointless questions on the internet, of course. *shifty eyes*

PS: Nothing illegal; it’s frowned upon by society.
PSS: The suggested category for this question was "Home & Garden > Garden & Landscape". I definitely see the sense in that ‘un.




How do you treat a hamster cut?




While i putting the cage back together my hamster ran up the tube and fell. there was this sound like she hit something and a little blood between her eye and her nose. i tried to clean the blood to get a better look. but i saw very little. and since i thought it was nothing i thought she wiuld clean it and it would heal.

Its been a few days and she clean her cut and it is much larger than i thought. it is deep too.

How do i clean it? will proxide hurt her? Please help me i dont want her to get sick.







I have a prolapsed internal hemorrhoid and plan to see a Dr. soon about it but was curious what the difference is? The description I have read online sound the same except one is from external and the other is from internal hemmies. Thanks!

Also, about a year ago my hemm. gave me a few days of moderate pain and bleeding. What caused this? Did it burst or something. I didn’t think anything of it except that I wanted relief from the pain but I let it heal on it’s own. Thanks!




Tattoo Healing Question?




I got a tattoo on my neck last saturday so it’s been almost a week. it was pretty scabby for a few days and not gonna lie, i sorta picked at it.. not really but i would rub it lightly and dead inked skin would come off so i am assuming that is the same type of thing. i refrained from scratching or peeling any skin off though.
but my question is, it feels almost normal now except the skin has a weird texture.. i’m not sure how to describe it. is this normal for the healing process ? i read somewhere that the skin goes through stages and one of the ending ones is milky/filmy which i would definitely say mine is. i just wanna make sure i didn’t mess it up by helping the dead skin to fall off.. does this sound normal, or should i still have scabs at this point?
sorry first tattoo :$
also please don’t give me the lecture about picking at my scabs, i am well aware i shouldn’t have and will have to deal with the consequences if it did any damage.







I lost my baby when I was 5 months along in January. It is still very painful to deal with but I am trying to make myself progress and deal with the pain. This is going to sound trivial, but I received some knitting supplies for Christmas and I was planning on learning how to knit and making some blankets and clothes for the baby. I love crafts but I hadn’t been doing any for the past few years and I was very excited to get back into it and be able to use my creative side to make things for the baby. In addition, my mom and I were going to do the knitting together. I found out that I lost the baby only a few days after Christmas. Ever since then I cannot even look at the knitting supplies, I even keep them out of sight in my closet. I know, it sounds crazy and trivial but unfortunately I cannot control how I feel. Do you think I should try to start knitting? Do you think that maybe allowing myself to feel that pain and come to terms with the fact that I won’t be able to make things for the baby will help me heal? It would be very difficult but I almost feel like I should take that step so I can properly heal. I was thinking about even making a blanket in remembrance. What do you think?







I had a 110 few days ago and now I have 108.







I have an inground pool in my backyard with a flagstone patio which surrounds it, a few areas of the stone are badly flaking. Is there anything that I can apply over top the stone so it stops falling apart… I swept it a few days ago and just having my dog run over top of it, makes it start completely falling apart… Is there a thick clear coat sealant that can be applied over top of it?
