What do I do?

I ordered the test kit and these were the levels, I've been doing 40% water changes everyday but the nitrate is still high, do I keep just changing the water or what else can I do?

Allergy reaction?

My mom is allergic to shrimp but I never have been, always ate shrimp with no problem. Today I ate shrimp but this time I felt so bloated and tired out of a sudden, I'm still feeling pretty dizzy, my heart is racing and I feel like I'm trembling, I couldn't breathe properly so I used my inhaler and took an allergy pill, could probably be why I'm shaking, but could I also have developed allergies? Or what could I do?

Am I in the wrong for wanting animals to live better even if I eat meat?

To start off, I know eating animals is still supporting the need for animal meat

But I don't get how me not wanting animals to get beaten for meat makes me this horrible person

I want animals to have a good life even if it is cut short, I know this might not make sense to some but I truly believe that animals should be treated with respect, I believe us eating animals means they've lived their life fully.

Am I wrong for that?

I want animals to stay with their young, eat rich foods, and have lots of space to be themselves. Yes I eat meat, yes it might go against what I'm saying for some of you, but why is it so wrong for me to stand up for animals? Just because I eat meat doesn't mean I'm not allowed to advocate for the safety of animals, am I in the wrong for arguing against people who are mad at me and saying I'm abusing animals?

What do I do?

Just looking for any way to treat this myself, I live with my parents and my dad redid our bathroom years ago without caring about anything, and this is what happened... How do I get rid of it?

Salt for fish

Could I use this salt to treat ich? I'm not able to go to any aquarium store at the moment as I live so far to buy aquarium salt, and my fish's condition isn't doing so well, are there any other alternatives?

I want help I feel worse everyday

I feel like my whole life depends on those I love, I depend on myself too but it's too hard, I have people and stuff I love, my mom, my sisters, my friends, my dogs, my fish, but it's too painful to keep going, my bf isn't the best support and contributes to why I feel so much in pain, he's doing his best but it doesn't feel like enough, it's such a struggle going forward especially thinking he's going to leave me, I've never been happier than with him, I don't want to die, but it's so painful, everyday I think about it and I just want help, I don't want to pass, I want to keep seeing what I love I want to keep seeing my bf, but I just can't, I'm too much in pain, and I can't keep going on like this, it's not getting better, I just want someone to talk to, I'm dependent on others when I'm sad, but I don't have anyone

Clove toothpaste

I heard that using cloves for toothpaste is good, just got my first cavities... is this safe? Boiling cloves, mixing with baking soda, and coconut oil? Or what should I do instead?

How to put this?

Saw this post online not sure who the person is but how did they hang those bowls? And does anyone know what plants those are and how to get them to grow this nicely?

​

So I upgraded my 20 gallon to a 40 gallon and I painted the back black, but in my old tank I had this cool light effect that I loved, but this black background will most likely not shine like that, but it also matches with my more dark gothic aesthetic, I love both ideas, what do you guys think? Keep or remove the black background?

Not sure what's wrong but it's fins keep getting worse and worse, never seen another fish attack it, what could be the cause and what do I do?
