  • Taking care of my new pets..... I need YOUR help!

    I went to a local stream today and caught a small fish(very small-its a baby as I saw adults 20x its size), 2 snails and a salamander.

    I am keepin them in a plastic container for now(lid off)-but i'm not totaly sure how to take care of them.

    I have pictures of them all, and their habitat, but I dont know what species they are, or what to feed them.

    Because im in a dorm I cant use a filter-so I guess I'll replace the water every day or 2-how often?

    As far as temperatue controll goes, I have a fan blowing ontop of the container(across it, not down onto it) to keep the water from getting to hot.

    I have several pictures of their "habitat" and each of them, but noplace to upload them too*..... can anyone upload them for me so I can everyone my pets for their advice?

















    *I got 2 bans for uploading things not relating to games from the site-both of which were accidents but im not uploading anything on apolyton again lol

    Those fish will die. Don't name them.
    Might try a feed store or a pet shop for food, if you want to try.

      My advice: Put them back in the stream. All the food they can want, and a perfectly suited habitat.

        2 cloves garlic (chopped)
        2 tablespoons butter
        Parsley, for garnish
        Your "pets"

        In a skillet at butter and melt. Add garlic and brown. Add your "pets" and cook uncovered until lightly brown. Serve with parsley

                You seem very confused. Dismantle this wildlife exhibit in your room, go out and find a nice girl, and have sex like a normal college guy.

                    If you change that water for chlorinated tap water, they'll probably all be dead within a week.

                      Curiosity has got the better of me. Why do you want to keep two snails?

                      Feel like upgrading to a worm, or something?

                        Lazarus: I'm using water from the stream.

                        As for the snails.... why not?

                        They were the first thing I caught......

                        After 2 hours in the stream all I had gotten was 2 crawfish(which I let go), a small fish, the salamander and the **** scared out of me as a snake popped out and ate another fish I was about to catch.

                          Actually, this fish would probably eat the snail .
                          The salamander might make the transition.

                            How do you know that? The snail may be ex-special forces

                              My guess is that a snail would be an ex-tank driver.
