Check the tank size requirements for your aquatic animal before you buy an aquarium, then choose a suitable place in the home to set it down away from direct sunlight. You can buy aquariums and indeed all of your aquatic pet supplies at just about every major pet store or local exotic pet store. Remember that you will fill it with water, substrate, and live plants, so don't keep it on a rickety or unbalanced surface. 1USgal (3.8L) of water weighs about 8lb (3.6kg), so a 10USgal (38L) tank with gravel and decor will weigh significantly more than an empty tank. LED lights and fluorescent lights are the best options to use as they emit little heat and provide light for the plants to convert into energy. Set up a lightbulb so it lights the aquarium without directly beaming light into your animals' eyes if it's too bright for you to look at, it is too bright for your pet, so use a low setting. Avoid using incandescent light bulbs as they do not penetrate the water effectively and will not give any nutrients to your live plants. You should keep the light on for about 10 to 12 hours each day at the max. Aquariums under 50 gallons (190L) will be just fine with a small filter unit attached to the back of the tank, but heavier aquariums will need a stronger filter. The substrate you will add later on will help to filter the water somewhat, but the water filter unit keeps the water clean and helps your plants to thrive. Opt for a heavy-duty filter, such as a canister filter, if you are worried about your plants dying. While a small filter will suffice for a light aquarium, a filter built for heavier tanks will clean the water more efficiently and you won't have to change it out as much. Some animals will do perfectly well in non-heated water, while others need the water to be warm and inviting. Look up what conditions are optimal for your fish or aquatic animal, and buy a heater that will keep it maintained at that temperature.

Summary: Buy a tank that will house your pets and choose a place to keep it. Set up a specialty light bulb above the cage to help the plants thrive. Pick a filter that is made for the size of your tank and the plants you will add. Set up a water heater, if your fish and aquatic animals require warm water.

Imagine getting up in the morning and being excited to go to work. For people who have found a career that they love, going to work feels more like a hobby than an obligation. Take some time to figure out what you're passionate about, and then find ways to turn your passions into a career. Make lists of things that you love to do. Write down 5-10 things that get you going, and try to match these passions with plausible careers. If you love hiking, look into careers that allow you to be in nature, such as a horticulturalist or environmentalist. If you're interested in social justice, try researching ways to get involved in a local school or non-profit. Writing down what you love to do and matching those interests with potential careers will open your eyes to the kind of life that will make you want to go to work everyday. It's easy to get comfortable in a job, even if it's one you can't stand. If you find yourself dreading going to work in the morning, give yourself the license to look into a different career path. It takes time to figure out what job sustains your curiosity and intellect. If you think you'd like to pursue a different career path, talk to friends, family or acquaintances with jobs that excite you. Ask as many questions as you can on how to get your foot in the door. Not only will this help you to make connections, but it will also show you that it is possible to follow your dreams if you take the right steps towards career satisfaction. We all need a certain amount of financial stability to survive. However, picking a career based on salary alone isn't always the best path to staying motivated. Let yourself pick a job that interests you, even if it's not the highest paying offer. As long as you can support yourself for the time being, it's important to try to love what you do. Believe in yourself and work hard so that you can get the necessary experience to move up in your career and eventually snag your ideal salary.

Summary: Discover what you love. Give yourself the freedom to experiment. Seek advice from experts in fields that interest you. Don't prioritize money.

Scroll down to the "Wi-Fi" section, then look at the number next to the "Default gateway" heading. Open a web browser, then enter the "Default gateway" address in your browser's address bar. If you're greeted with a login page, enter your router's username and password before proceeding. You may also be prompted to log in upon opening the Port Forwarding section. You may have to look for a Settings or Advanced Settings section first. Since all routers have slightly different pages, you may want to consult your router's manual for specific instructions. Enter your computer's local IP address in the "IP" or "Rule" text box. Click the "UDP" drop-down menu, then click TCP. In some cases, you'll check the box next to "TCP" instead. If your rule already has "TCP" next to it, skip this step. Type 25565 into each of the "Port" text boxes. Scroll down and click Save or apply, then wait for the page to refresh. At this point, your Minecraft port should be forwarded, allowing others to join your server. Your router may reboot itself after you set this rule.
Summary: Find your computer's local IP address. Find your router's local IP address. Open your router's page. Log into your router if prompted. Find the "Port Forwarding" section and open it. Create a new port forwarding rule. Set the protocol to TCP. Set the entry and exit ports as 25565. Save and apply the rule.
