Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Decide on whether or not you want other fish. Pick the right kinds of tank mates. Make sure your peacock eels eat.

Answer: Peacock eels can be good community fish, but sharing the tank can cause some complications in your care of the peacock eels and their companions. Make sure any fish you choose prefer similar water temperatures and conditions to that of the peacock eel. Peacock eels can be more sensitive to changes in their environments than some other fish. Peacock eels will eat smaller fish, so it's best to keep them with fish that are larger than they are. Peacock eels can be aggressive toward smaller fish but don't do well among fish that are much more aggressive than they are. They can be great tank mates provided they share their home with the right kinds of fish. Peacock eels get along well with other fish of the same breed as long as they are of similar size. Peacock eels can get along well with peaceful fish, but you should monitor their interactions to ensure your peacock eels don't hurt the less aggressive fish. Peacock eels and their tank mates are safest when they are all "semi-aggressive" fish. Examples of fish that are safe with peacock eels are swordtails, rainbow fish, and ottocinclus cats. Peacock eels are easily bullied away from food by faster or more aggressive fish. You may need to take special precautions to ensure your peacock eels don't end up going hungry as a result of their tank mates. Try feeding your peacock eels in the evening when other fish are less active. Make sure to watch your peacock eels eat to ensure their food isn't taken by more aggressive fish.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Prepare your hair. Protect the area from oil splatter.

Answer: The only general rule to oiling your hair is that you should comb through it to prevent tangling and messy oil application. Beyond that, there's debate over whether hair should be clean when oiled. Some swear that oiling works better when the hair is already a little bit oily and dirty say two or three days after your last shampooing. Others insist that oiling works best soon after you've shampooed your hair when it's clean and bare. Try it both ways to decide what you prefer. Especially if you're new to oiling your hair, there's a good chance you're going to make a mess. Spread old towels or paper towels around the area where you're going to work. This includes table surfaces and floors. Have an extra hand rag available for spot-cleaning drippy messes. If you're going to sleep with oil in your hair, protect your pillows with plastic pillowcase coverings.

Confirm that the building's interior is well-kept and clean. Meet your prospective neighbors and find out what they're like.

Answer: Unless you're planning to hold frequent parties, you're probably looking for a reasonably quiet apartment. Walk around both outside and inside the apartment building and see if there are any prospective sources of loud noises that could keep you from resting when you're home. If 1 building in a large complex seems like it will be too loud, ask the property manager if they can offer you a room in another on-site building. For example, if the building houses the indoor pool, gym, or party room, you may experience more noise than you can tolerate. A building that's within a few dozen yards of a freeway, railroad tracks, or commercial buildings that take early deliveries, also experience a lot of noise. Elevators can be noisy, as can exit doors to stairways. If your apartment is near the entrance, you will have to listen to neighbors walking past your door at all hours. Many sizeable apartment buildings or one in urban locations lock a gate at night to keep out non-residents. Talk to the property manager and make sure that the gate is routinely locked nightly. The slight inconvenience of having to stop and use your key to enter the building is often worth the peace of mind you get from knowing that you won't be easy prey for criminals, door-to-door salespeople, and people who would hang take-out menus on your doorknob. If all of the apartment doors open to the outside and there's not a fence around the property, this step won't be relevant. The way the building interior is kept reflects the quality of the apartment overall. A clean, well-lit, and well-maintained interior will also help you feel safer and more at home. If the interior hallways are dimly lit and covered in cobwebs, the doors are unpainted, and the carpet is filthy, find a different building. These are signs of negligent management, and indicate that cleanliness isn't a priority to the maintenance crew. Also keep your eyes open for any signs of bug or rodent infestations, leaky ceilings, or broken windows. It also wouldn't hurt to research the age of the building online. An older building may result in higher premiums for your renter's insurance because it isn't up to the latest safety codes. The people who live around you in an apartment building can have a large impact on what living there is like. For example, an apartment may be appealingly cheap because the building is near the local college and full of partying, noisy students. Or, the building may be the last resort for troublesome tenants who've been evicted from better places. These are both good reasons to choose another building. You can also ask the apartment manager or the building's owner what the tenants are like. Or, spend an hour or 2 walking through the halls and make polite conversation with residents who emerge from their rooms. It would also be wise to read online reviews of the apartment building to find out what previous residents have to say about the noise levels, cleanliness, and management.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Choose fruit and vegetables with interesting shapes. Wash and dry all of the produce.

Answer:
You can use whatever fruit and vegetables that you'd like to paint with, but those with interesting shapes usually offer the most options. Visit your local grocery store or farmer's market, and examine the produce to see which ones most appeal to you. Starfruit is an ideal option for painting because of its star shape. Chinese cabbage can create rose-like shapes when they're cut. Broccoli and cauliflower work well for painting because of their florets. Mushrooms come in a variety of shapes that allow for creativity. Apples, pears, bananas, strawberries, raspberries, potatoes, carrots, bell peppers, corn cobs, green beans, oranges, lemons, and limes are other good options. When you've chosen the fruit and vegetables that you plan to use, wash them with water to remove any dirt. Pat the produce dry with a clean towel. If any of the fruits and vegetables are particularly dirty, use a vegetable scrub brush to clean them more effectively.
