Lights had just been turned on which is why hes still so pale.

There's the link tk a photo of his eye.

My male, 1 year old, intact lhasa apso was rubbing his eye this morning after playing outside and whimpered. I looked at his eye and didnt see anything but he was squinting and teary eyed.

It seemed to feel better through out the day and then about 1 hour ago he was rubbing at his eye again and whimpered again. I then broke out my flash to see if i could see anything and I noticed the area in the photo linked above. His vet is currently closed. They won't be open until tomorrow. I have no idea if they will be able to see him tomorrow or not. I did already leave a voicemail and will call back again in the morning.

My concern is that maybe he needs to be see urgently. I would like some guidance on if this is an er visit kind of issue or I can wait for him to be seen at the vet.

He is now wearing a cone to prevent him from being able to rub his eye. I also have eye flush and an eye ointment in my first aid kit that has Oxytetracycline Hydrochloride and Polymyxin B Sulfate. But I have not used either on his eye because im not sure theyre appropriate or not for this situation.

This is my 2nd ever tank but the first where I reallt tried with the hardscape. I put it together yesterday (as you might be able to tell by the fact some of the wood is floating 🫠) but I put Java moss on the larger wood fixtures. Whats the likelihood that it will grow and cover the wood? Ive been told over and over thay it grows but it was still in the same place on my 20 gallon I took it from.

I am working on my first scape and have some stone and a ton of root sized bits of wood plus these two larger pieces. Id like to scape them into some kind of arch way but theyre so short its hard to get an actual arch unless theyre very close together. This will be going into a 10 gallong tank so there isnt a ton of real-estate to begin with. I dont know if this setup really works and I cant seem to manipulate the "roots" in a way that makes any sense as theyre quite rigid. Id love some tips on maybe how to better utilize these pieces and how to get the roots to work or if there is a way this setup could work as an archway.

I have 7 peas in my tank all named pea gravel except for boris who od thr biggest and most personable. This is the first time ove seen him/her snoozing one leaf.

6/10 peas survived the stress of shipping but thankfully rheyre all doing well.

Edit: make that 7. I guess i never see all of them at once. Lol

I bought some carpeting plant seeds and followed the advice from the seller to put them in the tank directly. Well.... they all floated and stuck to my other plants as they started singing. Its worst in my hornwort. Is it something I need to worry about or just ugly? Its like snotty texture and there are some clumps that have sunk but the majority are still adhered to literally everything.

I wish i had done it sooner! And yes all my grass has since melted away.
