Proper Diet For the Discus Fish


The Discus fish has its habitat in the South American waters of Brazil and Peru. Discus fish are classified as "grazers", and in the wild constantly forage for food. Discus are tall, and have a laterally compressed body. Their swim bladder is located on top of the stomach. They have small stomachs, and short digestive tracts, and with these small stomachs designed to hold small amounts of food, over feeding the Discus can be a problem. Even a minor case of constipation can cause serious problems for the Discus fish.

I thought long and hard about what she had written.

My Fathers Daughter


My dad was an avid animal lover. We grew up with all kinds of animals but especially dogs. That is one of the main things I got from my dad. He taught me a lot about the care and consideration it takes in owning an animal and the responsibility involved in doing it right. He never looked at them as simply pets but an extension of family that needed to be treated as such. So needless to say I had tons of animals.

Protect Your Pets From The Pound


Pets are people, too. At least, that?s the way they should be treated by their owners. The sad reality, though, is that a lot people own pets when they?re really not ready to care properly for their little furry friends. Or they just don?t know how to love, clean, and treat a cat, dog, or other animal the right and humane way. What happens to these poor animals? Many end up in shelters, lost and unwanted?to the tune of 6 to 8 million every year according to the Humane Society. At least half of those end up being ?put to sleep,? to put it nicely.
