How soon after adding sand to my tank can I add the fish? Starting a new aquarium and decided to go with sand. Got about 4lbs of play sand, rinsed it well. This took forever!!Added in a couple gallons from my mature tank and put some of the mature gravel inside nylon stockings into my new filter. Filled the new tank with fresh, conditioned tap water. It still got quite cloudy. It's been 24 hours and its at least half as cloudy as last night. When is it safe to transfer a few fish in? Saw some sites that said too much sand in the circulating water will suffocate the fish and now I don't know how long to wait before adding them. | You've got the right idea, but did one thing wrong - you added the mature gravel before adding the fish. By the time you get fish the bacteria will have died.
Wait until the water is fairly clear - you should be able to at least see the back of the tank with no real trouble. Do water changes to help, as many as you would like.
Once you do add the fish, that's when you add bacteria from the other tank. What's even better then hanging gravel is taking filter media from the mature filter and putting it into the new, since this is where the largest portion of bacteria is located. There really is no need to add ammonia to the tank now - you'll add fish and bacteria at the same time and presto, cycled tank (I've started tanks from other tanks many times just like this with never the slightest issue).
If you are actually moving all the fish from a smaller tank to a bigger tank, then you can quite literally move all the filter media to the new one(or the entire filter ot the new tank if it fits) along with all of the fish - same bio-load, same bacteria, more water volume - no need to drag it out in this situation. Keep it simple.
Don't let anyone tell you that you can't use play sand - it's all I use. There are ups and downs to it, but I'll never go to gravel again, sand is so much cleaner. | I love that wearing nylon hosiery is now out of style, however....? now that I have reached, shall we say, a very mature age going bare legged just isn't pretty. Wearing pants isn't always an option. My question is..Is it ever fashionable to wear hose? | | I had no idea we weren't supposed to be wearing them; I wear them everytime I have to dress up, and I see other women doing it, too. | Why is the area around my penis so is my penis itchy. PLEASE BE MATURE!!!? I am only 14 and i had never had sex ever. The only thing i do or did with my penis is to masturbate with down jackets, sleeping bags, nylon fabric jackets/ shorts, and north face jackets. (rub my penis on them until se--- starts coming out) I have been doing that for basically when puberty started to hit me and this has never happened to me. This is the first time ever for me seeing a red mark on my shaft of my penis (other side of penis). My balls are not itchy but sometimes the tip of my penis is itchy. The area where pubic hair is growing for my balls is getting very itchy too. I see rashes on the pubic hair area. I am mostly concerned on why is the back of my penis all red and why is the whole area down there itching. As i said, i never had sex so i don't have any STI or STD. But is masturbating too much causing this problems. I only do it once every 2 days. PLease help, i dont want to see a doctor cause i dont want my parents to find out what i masturbate with. | | stop using jackets and all the other stuff. that's proberly what is causing the rashes. just use your hand | Girls, I want your opinion: I just bid on these "special" undies for my man. I love the feel of nylon on him? and these look like so much fun. If you cannot be mature, don't follow the link: don't report me please.

These are the first ones I have seen that will fit him. Do you think we will enjoy them??? | They look absolutely exciting. I can only imagine what you will be doing with them. LOL
Different strokes for different folks !!!!
Enjoy !!!!!! | Do women enjoy wearing nylons/pantyhose to be more alluring? I'm curious. I find the look of a woman in hosiery very appealing and believe they add to her allure. As NE IL person, I guess I'm curious about whether there are any mature woman from IL who enjoy wearing them, and are willing to share their thoughts. | | I'm just 22, but I enjoy wearing hosiery. It looks more classy and feminine. | Teenagers: What magazines do you read? And how old are you?
I'm 15 and I usually read British Vogue, British Elle, Elle Collections, Nylon, i-D and Dazed and Confused and Another Magazine because they are both edited by Jefferson Hack.
Do you prefer magazines aimed at Teens or Adults? I would say I prefer magazines aimed at a more adult audience, because the fashion is more mature and different to what they put in Seventeen magazine for example. | i'm 13 and i read
-teen vogue
-vogue
-seventeen♥
-cosmo girl
-in style
-people
-people style watch
i definitely agree with you on the adult fashion magazine spreads. i'm an aspiring fashion designer so those adult magazines have more sophisticated spreads. however, in terms of advice and everything else, i like to read teen magazines like cosmo girl and seventeen because they relate more to me. | Considering the many fetishes around how many people would pay in order to see a cute guy in tights? Seeing as how there are numerous fetishes around for so many varied things and people willing to pay for them. There are already a few sites here and there that have men in tights / hose / stockings, doing their thing with the ladies of the site. So how many would be interested? The next question would you be willing to pay? If so how much?
Thanks for the answers and please be polite and mature people. I do not full on cross dress either, just like nylon for some reason ever since I was little. *shrug* Thank you! | | I wouldn't pay for seeing a guy who wears tights, but for taking them off ! | Dreadlocks frustration...? I am African-American. I have been growing my dreadlocks for 17 months now. My hair is in between thick and thin. They are locked and fairly mature. I have many concerns about my dreads. One of my dillemma's is that my hair does not lie down on the top (front) like mature dreads are suppose to. I have tried wearing hats, putting water on them, interlocking, using thicker gels and products, using rubberbands to hold them back, and nylon scarfs. Neither choice seems to last long. My hair does not have much weight to them (which i like). The only time it seems to lie down long is when my head sweats from humidity. Which in turn i wash my hair and have to retwist. My dreads are a little smaller than a pencil. Also, I would like to get my hair more trained to staying in place and falling instead of pointing in every direction. Some of my dreadlocks are curled at the ending. Not just the tips, but the whole bottom half. I try placing rubberbands on them and even tried wetting them. Does not last long. It seems like Im the only one having these problems with my dreads because i have searched the internet (for months) and media sites. No one speaks about this specifically. So now I am here trying to see if anyone else has the same experience with dreadlocks. If so, what have you done to fix the problem? Or does it all take time? | | Spritz a tad, tad, TAD bit of water on them at night (you don't want your dreads to mildew), and put a wave cap on at night before you go to bed. In the morning take off the wave cap and then brush through them very slightly at the top, front to back, front to back, and repeat. | How do I get cat spray smell out of my purse? So i went to get some papers out of my purse and they were wet. So I smelled them and yes it smells like disgusting cat spray... I think. The suspects are a cat and also a mature puppy. The puppy is mostly house trained (an accident here or there). And the cat, well I have never seen him spray but he's a year old and there have been about 3 incidents where a questionable smell lingered in the house. He is fixed. Either way it was one of them! I turned my purse inside out and it has the usual, probably nylon, lining. I don't want to throw this purse out; it was way too expensive.I tried soap and water with no luck. Anyone know of a good product? | | "Nature's Miracle 3-in-1 Odor Destroyer" or any product that contains enzymes to break down the stain. | Is it possible that I'm transgendered? If I were to describe myself in three words, it would be these: sensitive, timid, dreamy. I'm very different than other sixteen year old guys. A long list of reasons is to follow, but just know this, I'm kind of effeminate - not with an effeminate voice or anything, but I have more feminine qualities than masculine. I am heterosexual, but I wonder if it's possible I'm transgendered.
For starters, I have no father. He left my mother when I was only a baby, and she's had to raise me on her own. She's a very quiet, gentle woman and she was very kind towards me. Many men have found her to be a very, very attractive woman but she's never dated since my father left home. Up until when I was about eight, she was one of the only friends I've had. When I felt down, she would hug me and hum me songs, and she'd rub my back until I felt better. She dressed me differently than other boys - up until I reached a certain age, I wore boots that are pretty much like Uggs, wool sweaters, tunics with a waistbelt, and tights (yes, nylon tights, for warmth during the winter). Don't get me wrong, she's not a sick mother and she didn't send me to school wearing women's clothing (though I've worn tights under my pants on occasions when it was really cold), just sometimes when it was freezing cold I'd wear that sort of stuff, since we live in a small house surrounded by a large forest and back yard. Once I turned around thirteen or so, I wore that stuff less and less - however, I did develop a bit of a habit of wearing girls clothing. I would secretly wear some of my mother's dresses, blouses, heels, pantyhose - I wouldn't fantasize about being a woman, per se, but I would fantasize about girls dressed like that. How I love it so when the girl I like comes dressed up to school. Eventually I broke the habit though - it just felt weird, because I know (or am pretty sure) no other guy does that.
I look and act differently than other guys anyways. I look a bit more effeminate, I have long brown hair and I grow very little body hair, or facial hair. I really love drawing, painting, cooking, writing poetry and short stories, and music - my idea of a Friday night is cooking something to eat, then just laying down in my room daydreaming while listening to some music. I still love fairy tales, where a prince and princess fall in love, and sometimes I still watch Disney movies (though I don't want my mother to know, she's wanting me to start growing up into more of a man now) - one of my all time favourite movies is Beauty and the Beast. My mother has told me that I'm a bit of a "pretty boy" but unless I was really awkward and effeminate, girls would find me cute and sweet. I'm very very shy at school, and my voice is very soft - I only have three close friends: two of whom are girls, they are my closest friends in the world and I see them every single day; one of whom I'm not quite as close with and he's a boy.
Perhaps it is odd then, considering how much exposure I've had to the opposite gender, that I can only barely conjure the courage to ask out a girl whom I'm interested in. There's a girl I know whom I've really liked for the past three years or so. She's really really pretty, I mean, not to sound creepy or anything, and she's very sweet and sincere, very considerate of others. She is smarter and more mature than I am, which I look up to and admire in a girl, she does really well in school and she's responsible. She's one of my role models (along with my mother, of course). Granted, I have gone up to talk to her a few times and we've more or less become friends, but I feel really docile towards her and am even more bashful in her presence. I look forward to seeing her at school every day, and it's kind of embarassing to admit this (and perhaps somewhat creepy), but I really anticipate seeing how she has her hair done and what she's wearing, I both love it and hate it when she dresses up nicely - the reason I say "hate it" is because then I get extremely shy of her. One time, she came to school with her hair curled, dressed in such a lovely blouse and skirt with really cute heels, and I was so shy of walking up to her that every step I'd take would give me butterflies. Then I said hi to her really gently, and I blurted out "I really like your skirt." I gave her a hug and after she left, I was all swooned. I was blushing to the point where my cheeks itched, and my legs were trembling so hard I could barely walk.
But that may be a bit beside the point. Basically, I have very unique habits in comparison to most guys and I wonder if you think I may be transgendered. | No, I don't think your transgendered, your a teenage exploring your sexuality. You know your more sensitive then many young men. You are an artist, dreamer, and a little shy.
So what if you like the feel & look of feminine clothes. Have you seen the way some teens are dressing. Many guys going with their jeans around their knees & their boxers hanging out.
I'm a married man in his 40's. I was like you in my teens (early 80's). Very confused about my gender. While most guys were into Cars & Sports. I was into Science Fiction, New age & I've always loved women's lingerie, girdles, pantyhose & such. It took me several years to figure out which way I wanted to go. So give yourself time.
Even today I like some women's fashions better than men's somewhat boring fashion styles. My wife is the same way she likes a lot of men's fashion because she says it fits better. We joke each other that we were born for each others fashions.
You have a special advantage I didn't have with the Internet to learn about your sexuality. Use it explore & learn.
Currently there is a trend on for Men wearing pantyhose/tights, and Why not, Many Straight men just love the feeling of nylon, Some wear for warmth, & Health reasons.
