    I support this great initiative...

    A draft is highly unlikely to support a single conflict, a world war perhaps. Check out the Canadian ukraine Brigade if you haven't read about them, awesome story. Mostly Canadian exmilitary. Those guys were fantastic in the middle east, very skilled and well trained.

    I support this great initiative...

    I have already fought in war for several years, if called to do it again I will but I cannot make that decision for myself at this time. I have great respect for those that can and do.

    I support this great initiative...

    My daughter asked me if we could house ukrainian refugees a couple weeks ago. I was so proud of her for asking. We are in the USA and the need for refugee housing here is not high but we are ready if needed. My ancestry is norwegian, german, and the UK, and you are right in the middle of the...

    New tank

    I just downloaded and read your manual, there are "optional" sections of filter media that may not be installed. Have you checked if that is what the space is?

    First tank, now planted

    What did I say that would lead you to insinuate that I think of fish as objects? Because I want to know why people say what they say about them? I just read some scientific journals published by mdpi on tank size and cortisol levels in zebra danios. Turns out the increase stress is only...

    And people please stop quoting random articles because that can be done both ways, watch this: Sure you CAN keep a pea puffer in only one gallon! In fact its recommended here: https://fishtankauthority.com/best-fish-for-a-1-gallon-tank/ See, just because some fish authority website posted it...

    But WHY is the exact number 5 gallons minimum. Not just because that's what everyone on the forums says or has always said. What is the difference between a betta in 4 gallons and a betta in 5. Are there animal behavior PhD written articles on this. Where are the studies and support of the...

    What's wrong with my guppy/ tank?

    https://aquanswers.com/white-spots-on-fish-fins-gills-body-identifying/ This article talks about Ich, which I have been meaning to read up on. I also read in an old thread on here that if it is not Ich do not give Ich medication. Apparently it is a harsh med that could be counter productive if...

    First tank, now planted

    Years ago I bought a betta for my girls, put it in a .5 gallon tank bought right off the shelf beside the fish. I followed the "care guide" and didn't know I needed any further info until I started having water quality issues even with water changes. I was bombarded with how cruel it was to...

    New Here, New to the hobby.

    I'm also new, but I'll try to give you an idea that might work better for what you are trying to do. I have read and seen pics of people who have set up tanks similar to yours with a large rock in the center, effectively creating a circular track for swimming infinite distances. I don't have...

    First tank, now planted

    No they aren't on the underside, just on the top of the leaves. By all the articles I've read and videos I've watched I'm pretty sure its a nutrient deficiency. I mainly just want to know if there is anything I can do to prevent the need to fertilize. This tank is probably going to end up...

    Rocky thank you personally, you have been very kind indeed. I am not reading into tone, and no post here was blatantly mean or anything. It just so irritating that the online forum culture is to ignore that someone is trying to do better so you can tell them what they already know they are...

    I want to apologize. This is my own fault, not yours. This is why I left all the parrot forums. I keep my parrot in a huge cage but the parrot people would crucify me because I don't have any flat perches or swings as he NEVER would touch them. I've had him for 12 years and he's been...
