The family Cichlidae is a huge family with numerous tropical fish species spread over a significant part of the world. You can find cichlids in Asia and Africa, and from the southern parts of the United States all the way down to the southern tip of South America. You have probably already heard names such as Jack Dempsey, Discus, Oscar and Angelfish. Cichlids are very popular in the aquarium trade but before you take them home you should research the species to find out its requirements. In order to provide your fish with ideal cichlids care, you need to learn a bit about its native environment, e.g. water temperature and pH-value. Some cichlids are highly adaptable and can live in both alkaline and acidic water, while others are extremely finicky and need an advanced aquarist that will keep the pH-value within a very specific range at all times. The same is true when it comes to levels of soluble waste. Some cichlid species can tolerate quite a lot of organic waste products in the water while others will get sick or even die even at moderate levels. If you are a beginner aquarist, ideally pick a cichlid that is sturdy, adaptable and peaceful. Also make sure that it will not outgrow your aquarium or destroy your plants. Doing some research in advance can save you a lot of time, trouble and money in the long run.

To Frontline or not to Frontline…
That is my question.

My main concern is lyme disease. Having had it myself, I would like to protect my babies from it. But since my girl almost died 7 months ago from Rimadyl, I’m very hesitant to give her anything. She was in kidney and liver failure, and her kidney fuction may still not be normal.

We live in a heavily wooded area. I’ve seen about 5 deer today. Which is the lesser of two evils? My vet (new one) currently has all 4 of my dogs on Interceptor and
Frontline. She’s only 5, so I do want to protect her (and my other 3 dogs) from
heart worm and lyme, right??

Can anyone tell me if they have ever had a problem with this product.
We encountered a problem with fleas this year and never have had them before. The vet recommended using this on my 11 year old Greyhound so on Thursday we sprayed him with it and on Sunday he quit eating his meals, he only takes a bite or two and then quits eating, that is usually the hunk that I have his antibiotic in which is for a skin infection that he has.

This is starting to worry me because my Malamute has been bathing him none stop for the last couple of months like she is trying to heal him, so I have felt that there is something wrong with him, even though the vet checked him over and couldn’t find anything except the skin infection and fleas, but the Malamute also bathed my other Greyhound for a long period of time before he died. I don’t know if he has just became picky or what, but he has never turned down a meal, he is still eating his treats with no problem.
Thank you in advance for any help that you may give me.
