The tag multi-pet-families is currently applied to a broad set of questions, but I think some of them (especially different fish in aquariums) shouldn't be tagged with it. Regards concerns about households containing multiple pets of the same or different species and their interactions. Wh...

What should you do if you lose a hermit crab? I have a friend whose family put very large shells in for the crab to try,and it dissappeared. That was a long time ago, so it's obviously dead, but what should you do if you haven't seen them for a few days? Is shaking the shells inappropriate?

The answer to this Surface area to volume led me to an interesting article. LOW OXYGEN AND POND AERATION William A. Wurts, Senior State Specialist for Aquaculture Kentucky State University Cooperative Extension Program PDF From which I quote: Oxygen Depletion Sudden death of phytoplank...

I worked out how to get to meta by clicking on the help tab. Where is the link back to the main site?

Regarding "What other fish would be a good addition to my tank?". The parameters included in the question are very specific (the tank volume, current residents, environment, etc.), but I think the title of the question is too generic.

I am aware the issues surrounding feral cats and I would never consider turning a dog loose to fend for it's self. But rabbits are not prey animals so would seem unlikely to have a negative impact on the ecosystem, also I see wild bunnies in the fields and woods around my house. I imagine that ...

I grew up in a suburban area. Our next door neighbors had horses on a half-acre of land, and they seemed fairly happy. If I were to take care of horses, how much land would I need for them to have a healthy life? Does it depend on the type or number of horses?

I have three dogs that live in individual crates for roughly 5 hours every weekday. Two of them consistently prefer to poop inside, mostly on the pee mat. The third has always been the 'good boy' who doesn't go inside. Recently he has begun pooping inside his crate while I am away. I feel I giv...

Several popular rooms on the network are running a chat bot for some time now, including Root Access and JavaScript. There is a decent implementation of a chatbot, written in JavaScript, here. I run the chatbot for Root Access based on my light fork of Zirak's chatbot here (Selenium driver here)...

I noticed that one of my cats has a raw section of his nose, on the leather section. It appeared after a night where the two cats I have got into hissing/low growling during 'play'. The cat is acting normal and doesn't seem to be in pain, but we cannot figure out what could have caused it sinc...

We've got instinct, and I honestly have no idea what it's for or what the intent of the tag is. Two questions (one recently) were tagged with it. There is currently no tag wiki definition. Embellish it and keep it, or should I follow my own instinct and let it go the way of the dodo?
