My husband just started a job about 2 weeks ago and his boss said that he has to pay his own taxes on his income. How do we pay the different things that come out of a paycheck each week? I know there is federal tax, state tax, local tax, unemployment, social security, and a couple others but how do we do it all? I am completely confused. Please help with good answers thank you

I bought a travel system back in August of 2007 because my husband and i were trying to concieve and i found it really cheap at a yard sale. It is still brand new in the box but it expires in December of 2009. I am due in September and was trying to figure out if it is safe to use or if i should go out and purchase a new one?

Any advice would be helpful

I have had him for about 2 years now. He isnt the type of fish that likes water changes so i only change his water monthly or he wont eat. Well 3 days ago i noticed that he had a blister on his eye. I thought he just got hit by the horned pleco that he keeps messing with but it hasnt gotten better. My water tests are all at 0 and my ph is 6 (where he likes it). What is wrong and how do i treat it?

Here is what happened... My van broke down back in October of 2008. It took us until this past week to have the money and time to replace the motor. It sat in our garage for 7 months. Sometime during that time a river rat decided to make my van its home. So now all you can smell in the van is rat pee. I need to get that smell out so i can drive it again. I steam cleaned it today with double the recommended cleaner but there is still a bad pee odor. It also built a nest in the wall of the van. how can i get rid of that nasty odor. Thanks

Im a great cleaner. my tub has always been clean. I have just one problem. I have had my tub since March of 08 and just this week it has started spitting out nasty black specs out of the jets. How can i get rid of this its gross???? Please help.

Okay its still acting up... No power still. We have replaced the fuel filter, o2 sensor, fuel filter. It acts like it is chokeing.

My Blazer has no power when you step on the gas. We replaced the fuel pump and the sending unit what else could be wrong???? Please help its our only vehicle

Ok the fuel pump went on it so we replaced that. We also replaced the sending unit while it was out of the tank. Its getting gas and spark but it wont start. It just rolls over and over. My husband has no ideas left..... please help... give us something to work with

Ok Lets try this again. First off I have a 55 gallon fish tank with 18 Mbunas in it. Yesterday they started dieing. I am down to 15. This is how it happend so far.................................................................................................... Yesterday I found a dead fish when I fed them in the morning.

Also I treated for ich just in case.

In the afternoon when I got back home no more than 3hrs later another one looked like he was stuck he was upside down. I got him out of there and he didnt seem to recover so i put him in my mesh seperator. After more than an hour later he was still swimming upside down with all of his might. He died shortly after. I checked them and then went to bed.

This morning another was dead.

Now I have one who has made it through the day acting almost sleepy but not upside down.

There is another one though who is upside down now and keeps spinning like a ballarina on thier tippy toes.

Ive done a good cleaning. The Ph is up to 7.4. I cant check anything else cause I dont have an ammonia test kit. What could be wrong with my fish. I dont want to loose them all. Oh and the heat is 80 degrees. My tank has always been healthy. The only change that has happened is that I took one out that had babies in her mouth but she hasnt been put back in there yet.

I just noticed that one of them has a fin falling off. Now what???? Please help

Yesterday i noticed a dead fish in the tank when I got up in the morning. I removed the fish. Later in the day I noticed a fish swimming upside down. I put it in the breeder so the others would leave it alone. Later it died. Now I have another one that is doing the same thing. My ph is around 7.2 which is normal for that tank. I treated it for ich because one fish had white spots on it yesterday. Its been treated twice so far. I did a 50% water change. What else can I do??? I dont know why my fish are doing this. I take great care of my tanks and this is the first problem that ive had EVER. Please help

Is it okay to use a brand new never benn used household sponge to clean the inside of a fish tank that is setup. I dont have the cash to buy one specially for fish tanks.

I have a 55 gal with about 14 African Cichlids. I have one person telling me that its over stocked but online it says that you need to overstock mbunas. Am I over stocked? If not how many more can I get?

He pees on the floor in the tub in corners down the steps wherever. I dont know why he does it. Its after everyone is sleeping. Ive only caught him twice actually in the act. Ive tried to take away drinks after 7pm then I tried after 6pm.

Does anyone have any ideas. Im gonna loose my mind and Im tired of cleaning up pee. He does go on the toilet some nights but others he doesnt.

Any suggestions would be great.

Before you say anything I already have one of them but the new one is too small to eat feeder fish. What else can he eat? the fish store said he can eat flake food but he doesnt seem to like it. Any suggestions????

Okay before anyone says something stupid IT DOESNT HAVE FISH OR WATER IN IT..... I transfered my fish to my new tank last week then cleaned this one out or at least I thought. I want to get it ready for new fish but it now smells really bad. how can i get rid of the smell????? Any ideas would be nice.

There is white things floating in my oscars tank. I did a partial water change yesterday. Now there is what looks like the fuzz from a dandilion all over in the tank. What is it and should i be worried. Should I change the water again? Or should I get my fish into my other tank for now?

I was on ebay looking for a new tank and I saw the most cruel way to treat an oscar. This person has a 10-12in oscar in a 55gallon tank. Please someone buy that poor creature. It is too far away or I would. It doesnt even have much water in the tank. How can fish owners be so cruel to their fish?

I got myself some African Cichlids this week. They are still babies. I was wondering what color they will end up being and what kinds they are. Three are yellow with a black stripe on the top fin. The others are pure white. The worker at the store had no idea what types they were. (She isnt the brightest with fish shes better with dogs). I couldnt find thier pics online so I had to ask. What are they? Thanks.

What type of floor cover should you use for tiger oscars???? I have three choices... sand or gravel or both

The two of them are acting funny. They are leaving the other one alone but are acting funny together. They are rubbing on the bottom of the tank with their sides and rubbing up against each other. Are they mating or what? If they are then what do they need to put their eggs on??? Im new with oscars... Please help!!!!!
