Are you having trouble finding your fish in the fish tank due to cloudy water? There can be several different reasons for cloudy water in a fish tank, so let’s take a look at the most common ones. These are debris from new substrate, bacterial bloom, chemical imbalance, or even floating algae.

Most new rocks and decorations will cause cloudy water. If this is the case then your debris should settle and go away on it’s own in a couple of days. Before adding the next decorations or rocks it best to soak them in separate water to get all the loose dirt off before addingthem to your tank.

It’s difficult to get your dog to stop eating poo. This behaviour amongst dogs is not unusual and has a scientific name - it is called Coprophogy and can be very embarrassing for the dog owner.

Special horse care for the cold weather season usually starts in early November We here in eastern Canada (Saint-Lazare, Quebec) were pretty lucky with winter up until a few weeks ago (January 2007). Except for the missing leaves on the trees, riding conditions were similar to those in early fall.

Alas, winter is back, and with it come certain concerns on how to keep our equine companions in top shape.

Some experts in horse care say that a horse has to be exercised the same in winter as in summer. (These experts probably have never experienced real winter conditions)

As our pets age, it is up to us to make life a little easier for our beloved companion. After all the years of devotion to you, it is only fair that they get the utmost care and sensitivity when some sort of physical ailment limits them from performing once simple activities such as getting into the car or onto their favorite piece of furniture. Of course, as a pet owner, we know you only want the best for your companion, pet steps may be just the answer you are looking for.
