Betta Fish checklist - Do I have it all?
Today I have done some mega research, and I feel very confident about my future as a betta owner. My poor Rosario is in his little bowl right now, but it'll all be fixed up soon! I have created a checklist of all that I think I will need in order for me to do this right and for him to be happy. But I would really love it if you all could take a look and tell me if what I have picked out is appropriate. I will provide links and names. =) Overall Set up - 10 gallon glass aquarium; the ones you find at Walmart. It has been used before and held up well. Not in bad condition at all, just a few waterspots. (I already have it.) - Hood: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=3578+3730+13447&pcatid=13447 OR http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=3578+3730+3792&pcatid=3792 I'm sort of against the last one because of how small that stupid door is, and because it doesn't mention if there is a cut out for a filter or heater. It doesn't need to come with a light. - Filter: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=3940 I'll be going with the Biofilter 3, since it is for tanks up to 15 gallons. (But I find it weird that they are the same price...) - Air Pump: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/Product/Prod_Display.cfm?pcatid=3724 I'll be getting model # 50. - Vinyl Airline tubing: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/Product/Prod_Display.cfm?pcatid=6124 Which and how much should I get? The price jumps from $2.59 to $38.99, then $5.99. I don't think I'll need the $38.99 one... - Heater/Thermometer: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=3635560 Is this good? I think it says it includes a thermometer, but it may just be referring to presetting temps. -Gravel: I have gravel that is still in that aquarium I'll be using. It's been outside for a long time, and it isn't the whitest gravel around anymore... Should I just go ahead and get new gravel? - Decorations: I'll get these as I roam around PetSmart and Walmart. Cycling - Ammonia & Nitrite testing kit: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=3578+4345+13524&pcatid=13524 Since a nitrate testing kit isn't exactly mandatory, I don't think I will be purchasing it unless I magically find extra money lying around. :p - Pure ammonia - Computer on how to go through with the fishless cycling process - I do have an established tank, so should I take anything from there and put it in my tank, like some gravel? If so, how much? Other Information The reason I don't need a light is because I have enough light in my room for my betta to have a sense of day and night, and I won't be keeping live plants at first. Later on, I would really like to get live plants and eventually a light to add to the hood. I read that a reading/desk lamp would suffice for providing enough light for the plant, right? And I read from many sources that bettas don't NEED a light directly over them in their tank. Also, I am on limited funds, since I am only fourteen years old. I am too young to have a job to make money, so I won't be able to afford the most top notch things for Rosario, but I am going to do whatever I can to get him what he needs. I do have some money and plans right now to pay for this, but I might still spend a little more than I have. (I could sort of pay my mom off with $175, but it's a tad confusing on how it would all work. xD Sometimes she is generous and will just let some of it slide if it's cheap) Anyways, if you have suggestions of cheaper, but still efficient products PLEASE let me know! (Especially the tank hood!) To anyone who is actually taking the time to read all of my post, I can't thank you enough. I want to do this right and need all the help I can get, and opinions so I don't start ordering products that work like poo. Black Kat - Oops! I forgot to add dechlorinator and siphon to the list because we already have both of those things for the other tank, so I figured I could just use that. I'll be sure to get a thermometer. ^^ Whitney W. - I will most likely have to get a hood because my cats like to come in my room when my rats are in their cage. I can keep it off whenever my cats aren't in my room though, so I suppose the small door isn't an issue. Just as long as it has the cut-out and provides a bit of protection. My other tank is 26 gallons I think, so I can definately get some water from there and put it in to try and jumpstart the bacteria growth. ;) TetraLin - A lot of people are starting to do fishless cycles now, and there are lots of things about it that show up on google. The high amount of ammonia and nitrites are really bad for the fish, as I'm sure you know, and result in death or a shorter lifespan. I really don't want to hurt him any more than he has been in this life. -Cont- I'll see if I can get some Prime and add stuff from my other tank into this one to help it all, and maybe I can add him into the new tank sooner.

sounds good. very nice and elaborate. to be honest i did not look at the links, but it seems you are a very caring pet owner. hat tank could hold more than just a betta(perhaps some tetras...)you ddon'treally need a hood.....just keep the water level lower.no, the old gravel is fine.to be honest, the ammonia and nitrite stuff IS pretty unecessary unless for finicky fish.....or delicate,sensitive ones.Betta'swill do fine pretty much anywhere.just use the same water from the established tank is fine.also, dont get an air pump if the filter makes bubbles.it is just a waste, escpecially as a betta can breathe air(they breathe air 1/2 the time and in water the other half)
2 :
It looks like you've put a lot of thought into your list. The only items that I didn't see which I would recommend are water conditioner for removing chlorine, a siphon for cleaning, and a separate thermometer. You might already have the first 2 from your old tank. The thermometer with the heater is just to set the temperature, it doesn't hurt to have one where you can see the actual temperature of the water. Just in case your heater stops working or you forget to plug it back in after a water change. It can happen. Both of the hoods have places on the back that you can cut out or that will pop out for a filter. But once they're broken off, they would have to be taped or glued back on, so be sure of where you want the filter to be before you make the hole. You can look at ads on Freecycle.com or craigslist.com, you might find free or cheap equipment on those. Or read the ads in your newspaper or the papers they have free at supermarkets for selling and trading stuff.

Your check list sounds great! You have it all. I used have two beta fish of my own(in two tanks). I would go with the 5.99 tubing, the heater does not have a thermometer so I would get one and you don't need lots of gravel 1 cm deep should do. Hope your beta fish loves his new home!
4 :
The second hood is sold at Walmart as well (I have it on one of my 10 gallons). It does have cutouts. If you are only keeping a Betta in the tank, you don't really need a hood as they are not jumpers (as long as you don't have cats that like to drink out of your tanks like me ;) ). You could also go with a plain glass hood. If you don't like that one, this one: http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2754548 is cheaper than your 1st selection. The filter and pump are fine, and you only need the $2.59 tubing (unless you are planning on placing the pump really far away). Personally, I'd go with an all in one filter like this: http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2753028 or this: http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2752295 (in the 10 gal. size), both cheaper than the combined price of your pump and filter...but that's me. The heater is fine. Get new gravel. How big is your other tank? You can take about a cup (or more if it's bigger than 10 gallons) and put it under the new gravel (or mixed if it's the same color), that should give you enough bacteria to be able to put Rosario in his new tank in very short order. Kudos to you for wanting to take care of your fish so well!!! Good luck!
5 :
Just a few comments. 1) You don't need the pure ammonia. Put Rosario in the tank and he'll provide the ammonia for you. It's not a fishless cycle, and of course, not the ideal, but a bigger tank will help dilute some of the ammonia and nitrite. Just carry out daily water changes of about 15% until ammonia and nitrite read 0ppm and, if you can afford it, get a bottle of ammonia remover such as Prime to keep the ammonia and nitrite away from the fish. 2) Add dechloronator to your list, otherwise the filter will NEVER mature and the chlorine from the tap water will build up in his gills. 3) The nitrate test IS important - for 2 reasons. a) Because it's the end product of the cycle, so without it, you'd never really know when the cycle was complete. And, b) because nitrate is still a toxin - it's still harmful to fish if it's over 40ppm. The test kit you've chosen is the best on the market, but you might find it cheaper to go on ebay and get this: http://cgi.ebay.com/Freshwater-Master-Aquarium-Test-Kit-API-6-Unique-Tests_W0QQitemZ290283755234QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item290283755234&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1205%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50 It's the same thing, but you get all the tests you need. 4) The heater has a thermostat - not a thermometer. The thermostat reacts to the temperature of the surrounding water and turns the heater on/off. It's still better to get the thermometer :-) As for the hood, I have one for my betta tank, but I only put it on the tank when my brother's dog comes round (mainly because she's out of control), and Hughey's never made any attempt to jump out of the tank. Just keep the water quality as high as possible and provide him with plants/ornaments to hide in, and he should be fine. If you're really worried, get a condensation tray to go over the top. You could get the hood later. EDIT// I'm currently fishlessly cycling a 4ft tank myself so am well aware of the proposed method, and in any other scenario, I would be the first to recommend the fishless cycle. My point was, considering that you have a fish in "a small container", presumably without heater or filter, that you have from your friend the fish will be much better off in a 10gal heated and filtered (if not yet cycled) tank, than in the container he is currently in. Oh - and a tank will cycle on even a tiny amount of ammonia and nitrite. The emphasis on the cycle with fish is keeping ammonia down as much as possible. If you get the Prime, which will bind the ammonia and the nitrite up and keep them away from the fish, there's no reason you can't put him in the tank straight away. Otherwise, he's going to continue to suffer in a tiny bowl until the 10gal is cycled.
6 :
I agree with the above poster, an internal filter like this ; http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=3578+3579+3632&pcatid=3632 will be better and cheaper than the air driven set and will be quieter if the tank is where you sleep! You don't need to spend on a hood but can use a sheet of glass or Plexiglas cut to size. A hood is to hold a light and pointless if you aren't using lighting. With a clear top you can aim a desk lamp for visibility for cleaning. Fishless cycling is the way to go but you can use a cocktail shrimp instead of bottled ammonia. In your situation I would forget fishless cycling as Rosario will fare better in 10 gallons of water with daily changes than in a small bowl while the tank cycles. Keep an eye on the readings and keep a bucket of water prepared ready to change. As you already have a filtered tank it can donate some bacteria to the new one. Just squeeze some of the filter gunge onto the new filter.
7 :
i would do without the air pump and tubing (you save $15!!) because bettas are anabantoids meaning they can breath from the surface and don't need air pumps to agitate the water. for the lid, i would get the second one since it's cheaper and the small opening isn't a big problem. the only time i need a bigger one is when i do my weekly water changes and i just simply take the lid off for that. cycling -i would get a nitrate and ammonia tester instead because then you know if the cycling has started (ammonia) and when it has ended (when nitrates chow up) - for the established tank, it'd be best to put one of the sponges into the new tank. that would almost instantly cycle the tank. you could also put as much gravel as you want. http://bettacare101.googlepages.com

Please help me with this hard riddle!?
Since Alice's mom insisted that she learn to use a needle and thread, there's been no stopping her. As befits her status as a business major in college, she's begun taking in small sewing projects to earn a little extra money. She's done FOUR such projects for FOUR different people in her dorm, including EVIE and GARY, and charged them each a different amount of money- $5, $8, $12 and $15. Using this information and the following clues, determine: THE ORDER IN WHICH ALICE DID EACH PROJECT THE FULL NAME OF THE PERSON SHE DID IT FOR THE AMOUNT SHE CHARGED FOR EACH Additional Clues -One person's surname is Mendoza -Repairing the inseam on a pair of jeans was so simple that Alice only charged her friend, a guy who didn't sew, $5 -Alice's job making a custom-fit toga for a friend's Halloween party was the second one after a job she did for a person other than Leo -She charged the person with the last name of Hummel more than she charged the person for whom she sewed on a patch -She did the job for Betty just before she embroidered a person's name on a hat, and immediately afterward did a job for which she charged 3 dollars more than she charged the person with the last name of Phillipson -Phillipson and the person with the last name of Schatz are of the same sex, and Alice didn't do jobs for them consecutively, in any order of who was first -Alice didn't do the $12 job for Betty This is the exact wording I took it from a friend.

What is your opinion on this ICE sting nets 121 gang members 19 guns, brass knuckles, cocaine, crack,marijuana
What is your opinion on this ICE sting nets 121 gang members 19 guns, brass knuckles, cocaine, crack,marijuana
http://www.star-telegram.com/news/story/178437.html IRVING -- They're the most menacing of the menacing in the Metroplex -- violent street gang members who murder, sexually assault children and engage in organized crime. And when a weeklong roundup ended Sunday night, 121 people identified as gang members, including 47 from Fort Worth and 12 from Arlington, were in custody, authorities announced Monday. The federal and local operation also seized 19 guns, brass knuckles and a switchblade, 3.4 kilograms of cocaine, less than a gram of crack, 1 gram of heroin and 1.1 kilograms of marijuana, officials said at a news conference in Dallas. "These are not people you want living next door to you," said John Chakwin Jr., special agent in charge of the Office of Investigations for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Dallas. The roundup was part of a program called Operation Community Shield. ICE is involved, Chakwin said, because past assessments of gang activity have indicated that many members are foreign-born and are in the country illegally, have criminal convictions or are involved in crime along the border. Of those arrested, 63 were on warrants for criminal offenses and 58 were classified as illegal immigrants, Chakwin said. Members or associates of 27 gangs were arrested. The basic strategy of Community Shield has been to disrupt gang activity by arresting and prosecuting gang members and by impeding the flow of money in and out of gangs, officials said. U.S. Attorney Richard Roper said those arrested would be prosecuted "using every arrow in the quiver" or would be deported. "Forty-seven arrests -- that's going to have an impact," Fort Worth Police Chief Ralph Mendoza said. Operation Community Shield Initiated in February 2005, Operation Community Shield is a national strategy targeting violent gangs. Originally the focus of operation was the Mara Salvatrucha organization, or MS13. In May 2005, Community Shield was expanded to include all criminal street gangs "that pose a threat to national security and public safety." Nationwide, since the program's inception, more than 4,500 people from 532 gangs have been arrested. IĆ¢€™m sure Sullivan will make sure they get housed with the imprisoned Border Patrol agents.

advice on buying 6 month old macbook pro?
advice on buying 6 month old macbook pro?
It's the santa rosa style, matte, and it's six months old. He's asking for 1000 and he paid 2,200 for it originally. is that a good deal? or should I save that money and get either a mac-book (new or white, either one) Please give me your opinions! I'm having a computer technician (a family friend) look at it to make sure there's nothing fishy. And the reason he's selling it, is cause he just doesn't use it, he has a dell touch screen and he prefers that more. there is a warranty 2011! he's a guy i go to school with!

Have him email you the specs on the machine: Disk space, ram, processor speed, rom speed, and anything else that would be important. Give that info to your techy so he knows what he is going to be looking at later on. Ask him about the warranty, for information on any service that has been done to it, what program discs he still has, and double check with him that there is no damage or history of damage to the machine. GET THIS ALL IN WRITING!!!

How do I pay my speeding ticket? (I need specifics)?
How do I pay my speeding ticket? (I need specifics)?
I got a speeding ticket and I need to pay it. The ticket is from the Florida Highway Patrol for 9 mph over the legal limit. I know I need to mail the ticket in and I have the adress, but I'm confused about how I pay. It says "Payment should be in the form of money order or a cashiers check". Then below that it says "Personal Checks are Accepted" and "Make payable to the Clerk of the County Court". I'm confused. This means I can't send cash, right? But I can right a check. Right? But the thing is, I don't know who to make the check out to. I have no idea who the Clerk of the County Court is. I live in Santa Rosa county. Any help?

dont
2 :
I would go to court...9mph over does not deserve a ticket. I think the cop was just trying to target you.
3 :
Just make it out to Clerk of the County Court right on the check- usually you can do it on line too. You don't need the clerk's real name.
4 :
Right, you can write a personal check. Just make it out to the Clerk of the County Court. They don't want you to put a specific persons name. They have an acct setup in the Clerk of the County Court so they just deposit it. Make sure you put the ticket# in the comment section of your check.
5 :
Don't send cash at all, send a money order, cashiers check or a personal check to...... Mary M Johnson Santa Rosa County Clerk of Court P.O. Box 472 Milton, FL. 32572 Traffic Infractions 981-5650
6 :
They prefer a money order or cashiers check because they try to avoid bounced checks. Cash is a very bad idea because it could get lost in the mail or pocketed and there is no way to trace it. A personal check is fine just make sure the money is in the account. On the back of the ticket it should say exactly who top make it out to. "The Clerk of the County Court" might be what you write in the space. Since no one here can see the ticket you need to figure that one out. Have you checked to see if you can pay it online? Most tickets you can now. It should say so on the back.

never sned cash in the mail call the number on the citation and tell there you are out of state. some will take a credit or debit card over the phone.
