Article: Mild to moderate dehydration in adults can usually be cured at home without much risk of complication, but severe dehydration will require emergency medical care. Adults with mild to moderate dehydration may experience increased thirst, a dry or sticky mouth, difficulty urinating, dark yellow urine, skin that feels dry or cool to the touch, headaches, and muscle cramps. Adults experiencing severe dehydration will likely have a lack of urination, amber-colored urine, shriveled skin, irritability, confusion, dizziness, rapid pulse, rapid breathing, sunken eyes, listlessness, shock, delirium, or unconsciousness. Plain water and drinks containing electrolytes are your best options. As a general rule, you should drink as much as you can without making any nausea or vomiting worse. Most adults need between 2 and 3 quarts (2 and 3 liters) of fluids per day. If you're dehydrated due to nausea or a sore throat, try sucking on ice chips or popsicles made from juices and sports drinks. Electrolyte imbalance is not as grave a danger in adults as it is in children, but it's still something worth noting. Consider drinking oral rehydration solutions or sports drinks to help replenish some of the electrolytes your body loses when it becomes dehydrated. Oral rehydration solutions are best if you're dehydrated due to illness, but sports drinks work well if you're dehydrated due to overexertion. Acute dehydration is often caused by exposure to excessive heat or accompanied by an elevated body temperature. In either circumstance, you should try to cool down to prevent the body from losing additional water content. Remove excess clothing and loosen necessary clothing so that it doesn't smother the skin. Sit in a cool area. Move into an air-conditioned building if possible. If this isn't possible, sit in the shade outdoors or sit near an electric fan indoors. Cool your skin with water. Place a wet towel around your neck or on your forehead. Mist your exposed skin with lukewarm water using a spray bottle. Note that the cooling process must happen gradually. Exposure to excessive cold can cause the blood vessels to body to shiver, thereby raising its internal temperature. For this reason, do not attempt to use ice packs or ice water to cool your skin. When dehydration is caused by vomiting or diarrhea, you should try to control these symptoms through diet and medication to prevent any additional loss of water. In many cases, over-the-counter loperamide can control diarrhea. Do not use this medication if you have a fever or if there is blood mixed in with the diarrhea, however. Use acetaminophen instead of ibuprofen for help controlling any fever you might have. Ibuprofen can irritate the stomach lining and may make vomiting worse. Stick with clear fluids, including broths and gelatins, for the first 24 hours. As the vomiting and diarrhea subside, gradually reintroduce bland foods back into your diet.

Article: You can simply search online for your city, region, or state, along with the words "aquarium" and "distributor" to find a supplier in your area. Although buying your stock from a distributor is a tad more expensive than buying it directly from the manufacturer, a distributor will fill smaller orders (like for a small business) where manufacturers often will not. Distributors are also sometimes called wholesalers, brokers, or jobbers. You can also ask your competitors who they get their supplies from, although they probably won't be too keen to help you. You'll need to secure supplies of tanks and tank lids, stands, filtration and aeration systems, water treatment systems, tank scrubbers, decor, and anything else that a potential customer might need for their aquarium. Place a small order with your wholesaler at first to get a sense of how much product you can move in a set amount of time. You won't be able to turn as much of a profit by sticking to 1 or 2 types of fish, like guppies or goldfish. By selling more exotic species as well, you will not only appeal to a broader clientele, but will also be able to sell more valuable (and profitable) items. You can acquire your fish either from saltwater fish collectors, who capture the fish in the wild, or from freshwater fish farms. Note that you'll need to know how to take care of exotic fish before you can buy them and sell them in your store. Examples of exotic fish to stock in your store may include African cichlids, angelfish, or swordtails. You should also aim to stock both freshwater and saltwater fish. Although most home aquariums house freshwater fish, you'll want to make sure you're catering to as many potential customers as possible. while they're in your possession. The fish aren't just your means of making an income; they're also living creatures that need to be taken care of. Be sure you're adequately feeding and housing the fish you're selling and monitor their health for any signs of illness. Make sure you feed the fish the right type of food each day. For example, some species of fish eat tropical flakes, while others eat bloodworms, while still others eat shrimp eggs and krill. Measure the pH levels in the tank each week to make sure they're within an acceptable range for the type of fish in the aquarium. Clean each aquarium each week and replace the filter every month.
