So I just went and introduced all my new fish from Walmart and petco into my established tank. Worried about ick. Used aquarium salt and put a heater that goes to 80 degrees. Will this kill the ick or just put it into remission? Is it likely my fish will get ick
Even if your aquarium has ich your fish won't contract it as long as they're healthy and well nourished.

Thanks
What I'm asking is if it's likely to eradicate all ick by raising the temperature

What I'm asking is if it's likely to eradicate all ick by raising the temperature. So even when temp goes down again there's no infection.
I found my cat playing with this in the snow. My cat has no claws so I don't think he hurt him, but he's shivering so I took him inside.
I'm fairly certain he's not a mouse. A mole maybe?

It looks like some kind of shrew. Maybe someone else can give you more specifics.
>>2044412
I live in northeast Tennessee if it makes a difference.
What do shrews eat?

Came home from school the other day to find him in front of my house, was wondering if any of you had any idea what breed he is so i can put up flyers/ posters around town?
>>2043209
looks like he has some meme doge in him
Not a breed, some sort of mutt.
Be vague on the papers to ensure that if the real owners come forward for him, that they're the real owners. Leave room for people to describe it because people will call you and say it's their dog just so they can have it.

also, he doesn't look very well groomed, did he have a collar when you found him?
What are your toughts on the 4 leged aryan /pol/ , and why is the best pet you can have?
>can hunt pests like a mother fucker
>loyal as fuck if you know how to treat them
>chills all day, but is allways ready for anything
Cats are an ecological menace. They torturously kill many animals, including many endangered species.
That being said, I like them okay anyway. Got one myself.

Bullshit. Cats are like humans
God gave them to us to be used as we see fit.

Way worse than Youtube comments.
Hey /an/
Can you tell me if this is something to worry about? About a week ago I noticed these red patches of skin around my dogs mouth; I haven't noticed them before but im not sure if that's just the color of her skin.
She's 3, and an Australian shepherd mix. We don't know what the father was but we thing a St. Bernard, if that helps.
I'll post both sides of her mouths and a pic of her. It doesn't seem to bother her, but she also compulsively licks her paws so maybe she just has chapped lips? Idk, I just want to make sure...

Sorry this one is upside down, she was being fussy. It's the other side of her muzzle.
>>2044475
And this is her
Could be allergies, get her checked by the vet.
I found this in my room, its like a white ball wich has gone out of a shell and I have thrown it by the window because I don't like it. Can someone tell me what is it and if there can be more of them in my room? :^(
1: Where do you live
2: Get another picture
>>2044193
in my room after getting a lot of paper out of my desk, there were small pieces of chocolate too... well yes I'm a bit lazy about cleaning

Dog park thread?
Stories? Tales?
I'll start.
The other day this really old Labrador (like. Haggard as fuck, probs 14) is chilling roaming the park like a majestic elephant. Some young kids, maybe 14, bring their friends dog down (who they don't know) to the park. It's some Bogan fucking staffy, questionably pit. It latches onto old dogs neck. The owner who is like mid 60s tries to pry the mouth off, doesn't work. Some quick thinking from a bloke at the park ends it by putting fingers up the staffys ass hole. Old guy is furious and...

When I take my dog to the park, she often meets and plays with her best friend. And often with her other friends aswell. Except one she's scared of for some reason, a great dane. He's sweet though. And another dog just doesn't like running much, I guess it's older or prefers toys.
tfw your dog's social life is better and socialer than yours.
>The dog park in my village is under control of a gang of older women.
>They stand there for hours everyday, tell dirty jokes and throw balls for their dogs.
>The dogs don't actually play with each other, just fetch stupid balls.
>The dogs formed some kind of pack and don't tolerate other dogs.
I don't go there anymore. It's no fun and the worst.
Old people starting park gangs are the worst. The usually have shitty little dogs too.
This is horse. This horse go "neigh whinny" it is black horse. It go run, it go lie down and roll. Horse friendly, horse like hay and grass

Fun fact horse doesn't lie down often, Relax yourself horse!
This horse is an outside horse, when horse picture was taken it was cold for horse. Horsei has a blanket to be comfy cozy warm, stay warm horse!
He had fleas like crazy and he was really skinny. He seems to have been left there since we have a park nearby and he was sleeping in front of my house. He had a collar made from an old belt and it was caked in dirt and he hadn't seemed to have bathed in forever. If we find his owners that's great but a name would be nice. Sorry for the snap pic btw.

Post the best animals from your favorite geological period
I myself have to go with the Permian. There is no beating a world where weird mammal/reptile synapsids fuck shit up on a desert Pangaea. Gorgonopsids were GOAT.
I can't even imagine what life would look like if the great dying didn't fuck over most synapsids.
Phytosaurs are really neat
CAN YOU EVEN HANDLE?
Why don't we domesticate bears?
Something about them requiring too much food.
>this thread again
>attempting to domesticate apex carnivores
because that stuff has worked out so well. Sea world hasn't had anyone eaten yet I think.
