What did I rescue from my sister??

In order to know how to properly care for it, I need to know what it is... The issue with that is my sister won it with a succulent [in the same pot] at a work party; the succulent was rotted and dead but Ive managed to save this one and its color is coming back now from the wilted yellow/brown it was... she said it was mostly "blue" when she got it, but it was nearly dead when I came upon it and brought it home so I can not confirm that..

I will be re-potting it tomorrow now that Im certian it will live, and am really hoping to get it properly identified so I can properly plant it in the best soil for it and care for it.

Thank you in advance for your time, and Im very open to care suggestions for indoor growth!!

Best basketball muzzle recommendations?

I need to get a good basket muzzle, Metal or hard plastic, no cloth, mesh or soft rubber, for my little bully. She is a rescue from a extremely abusive situation, and while shes grown in leaps and bounds it has become clear she can never be trusted around people other than family without a muzzle.

As a professional dog groomer and trainer Im very familiar wirh nuzzles- but I honestly have never needed one for a small brachycephalic breed before.

I want her to have the ability to bark, and while drinking is a good option it is not necessary as she will never have it on longer than 10-15 minute intervals before being taken to a safe place I can remove it for several minutes for her to get any water or whatever she may need; sne will never need it in our home.

Picture of my beefy and sassy rescue girl with our other fur babies (whom she hardly tolerates but all tolerate her lol)

Power has been out for 2.5 days and expected not to be resored for 4 more days - how to keep fish alive??

I have a 90gallon with a 4-5in EB JD, a close to mature Angelfish (odd pair but as individuals work great with eachother), 4 Siamese Algea eaters (3in or so each), 4 clown loach (about 2.5in each) and 3 Golden Killifish.

I also have a 30gal with a 3.5in EB JD, 2 siamese algea eaters about 1.5in each and a random blue baddis who somehow came with plants and I havent been able to catch for months lol.

Power went out Friday at around 5pm. It is now Sunday at 5:15 while Im typing and theyre not expecting to have our power resored until Wed-Thursday due to the severity of the damage..

Its about 80-90° so temp is not an issue, but bubbles are. We have the crappy little generator and all generators are sold out around us, so the best Ive been able to do is running their bubblers for about an hour 1//2 or two every 12 hours or so when we come to check on our cats (we were able to take our dogs to where were staying right now, but the cats are fine as they can hang in oir basement - our two special needs kids cant take the heat)...

My fish seem fine for now and the last couple days but this cant be sustainable, right??? What can we do to keep our fish alive?? Im not sure I can swing it today, but tomorrow I could come do water changes and also can the rest of the days without power but things have been too hectic until tomorrow - would that and bubbler for 2 hours every 12 hours or so be enough??

▲ 424 r/steak

Ill have the option to get whatever I want - want opinions on absolute best chance of "the best"

To each their own of course, but I love *all* beef, steak is my favorite so long as its cooked correctly [for me that would be rare or medium rare].

I love filets, I love ribeye - either way, this is an indulgence Im not sure when Ill get again... So if it was up to you, what would be your choice and why??

I also included the add-onset available, though Ill admit I personally always just like my steak the way it is but figured it wouldnt hurt to see other peoples opinions/suggestions 😊

Any idea what this tooth could be from?

Found in my husbands 98 year old grandmother's things when she passed; as of now were assuming it could be from a dog that his grandfather used to own and maybe dug up a memento from one before he moved from Canada to the US but we have no idea and no one else even knew she had it - let alone with her dice collection lol.

Neither were hunters, never owned pets together or had any kind of taxidermy; the only animals ever known for either to own was the grandfathers childhood dogs he spoke a lot about but never owned one in adulthood.

▲ 10 r/VenomousKeepers

For those who keep hots in the states, do you keep your species antivenom, and if so I have questions!!

One of the many rules I've been taught about keeping hots that any responsible owner will have antivenom ready if needed for the local hospital to administer if theyre bit, which completely makes sense to me, but I have some questions about that..

1: How difficult is it to acquire the anivenom for your species? Im assuming some are easier to come by than others, but still *how* do you even go about legally acquiring it/knowing you have exactly what you need *if* needed? Im assuming it must be stored in a specific way as well?

2: How long do these vials tend to last/ how often do they need to be replaced assuming they were never used?

3: What is the general cost of antivenom in the United States; is it less for native species like copperheads that tend to be native and more for something like a Gaboon which is not native, so less likely for US hospitals to carry? And if you own a non-native species, again, how do you go about acquiring it then?

4: though maybe this should've been higher - *IS* it legal to aquire antivenom as a exotic keeper, not being a hospital, zoo, etc?

5: Is the antivenom actually for one to give to the medical personal to administer, or are you supposed to take courses to learn how to administer it yourself ASAP then be hospitalized/or administer it yourself and have more if needed for hospital staff to administer if needed/etc?

Im not sure if Ill ever actually get into true hots myself (though I have some warm ones lol), but while discussing it my husband had.some questions I hadnt considered which made me think of some of my own, so Id like your ask those who keep hots and see how it is for them - though I recognize its likely different state-to-state based on laws/regulations/etc... But these are questions Id really like to know the answers to as I consider my future in potentially owning hots or even just as general knowlege. Thank you in advance!!

Is there a reason I've never seen anyone else get Erdel as their horse?? [KCD2]

I've seen enough posts to know giving up on Pebbles in the beggining may have been a mistake (lol), but otherwise all of the posts I see are for the Phantom horse, which makes sense to me, and Herring, which aside from Stamina I don't see why anyone chooses Herring over Erdel except maybe an easier name to remember 🤣

Totally serious though, for those of you who did not stick with Pebbles or the Phantom horse, is there a reason you never chose Erdel/chose a different horse? Im genuinely curious ☺️

▲ 1 r/Monstera

I just picked up this Variegated monstera deliciosa and before I transplant it or do anything I want advice from those with much more experience on the very best way to help it thrive instead of not asking and letting it grow into a wild, unkempt plant as Ive seen and done myself with Monstera in the past (granted it came to me mostly dead and before and thrives, but I want to take the opportunity to grow this plant correctly).

It honestly reeks of fertilizer so Im not so sure I'll need to add any when I do repot it as it smells like it has plenty to last a few months (if anything too much); but I want any and all advice everyone has! From the best posts to set it up with, if theres anything I should use to gently bind it to grow in optimal ways, how to best rotate/maneuver the plant for optimal growth, etc.

Im just very excited and while my 2 "rescue" monsteras are thriving, as I said I got them second hand almost dead and growing in bizzare ways so Id like to keep this one much more neat and controlled since Im getting it small 😊
