I have a 30 gallon freshwater community tank consisted of 10 rasboras, 3 cories, 2 rainbowfish, 2 german rams, 1 bristlenose pleco, 1 oto, and 20 ghost shrimp. The tank is moderately planted. I noticed that my German Ram has several white spots on its fins, which appear to be ich. How can I treat the tank, or the infected fish, without harming the sensitive fish, plants or invertebrates?

I have a 10 gal tank and I was thinking of putting 3-4 neon tetras ,1 african dwarf frog and 1-3 vampire shrimp or yellow or purple banded shrimp if they are freshwater.And I’m going to ask if they store has bristlenose plecos and clams. I’m also looking for a betta but its fins might get ripped .So I know I’m getting 3 or more neon tetras ,1 african dwarf frog and some kind of shrimp from the store but I’m not sure if I should do that, what do you think?

Gay marriage is a HUGE issue for conservatives in this country, citing the bible as a refrence, in which it states “[Homosexuality] is detestable” (Leviticus 18:22). BUT my question is, in the very same book of the bible, God refers to something else as being “destestable”: “Anything living in the water that does not have fins or scales is to be detestable to you” (Leviticus 11:12).
So one could argue, that in GOD’s eyes, enjoying Unagi (freshwater eel) or octopus or shrimp, crab, lobster, is commiting the same “level” sin as a practicing homosexual.
alright i know the argument that no one is trying to stop homosexuals from having sex, just stopping legal recognition of the relationship, But my question then would be, How did sushi bars or seafood restaurants get health department approval, legal regodnition of their businesses.
on a side note I am a Christian, Often my arguement to these people is, STOP citing the bible as your purpose to “destroy the unnatural” because in
reality, why cant you just admit, that it is strange to you and you dont welcome it for it being different! because if you truley were a Christ Crusader, you would learn what i feel is the MOST IMPORTANT BIBLE VERSE EVER “Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you” (Matthew 7:1)
all bible quotes are from NIV version
Upon plain reading of Leviticus 11:9-12 I read that eating Shrimp is an abomination. I understand many believe that the wording of it is such that its the shrimp that are dirty and not the eating, even thout the wording in the NKJV is verse 12:Whatever in the water does not have fins or scales—that shall be an abomination to you (NKJV). I understand from Matthew 15:11 Not what goes into the mouth defiles a man; but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man.(NKJV) is used to say that we are no longer under the dietary restrictions from Leviticus.
If you answer that Leviticus was good rules for the desert becaus of food preparation, did food prepraration change in Jesus’s time making it ok to eat shrimp? Is it still a sin to eat shrimp, is it still an abmonination? Did Jesus reverse the ruling much like in the Constitution the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments reverse out the slavery rules in the original 1789 document, the 3/5 rule for example was eliminated.
