INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Once she's laid her eggs, remove the female from the breeding tank. Put her back in her usual tank, which can prevent injury to her from the very devoted male betta. Be aware that a female may lie still for a few moments after laying her eggs. Male bettas may also chase females away from the bubble nest when they're done laying eggs. Put the female in her old tank or consider letting her rest for a few days in a hospital or holding tank. Bettas are easily injured in the mating process. Check for torn fins after they mate to prevent disease or death. Add a commercial water treatment such as MarOxy or Bettamax to prevent disease in recently bred bettas. Buy the water treatments at a pet stores or a specialty fish supplier. Separate the fish if you notice significant stress or wounding. After about three days, check to see if the eggs have hatched. The fry, which have the appearance of little black dots, will also have little tails. Watching for the development of fry signals you to remove the male betta, which can maintain the safety and health of the fry. Put the male back in his tank or a hospital tank for a few days. Feed the fry once they're swimming freely. Fry get "infusoria," which is easily made by placing a lightly boiled potato in a jar of aquarium water for 2 days to culture the microscopic animals. Put some of the infusoria water in the tank with the fry 2 times a day. Allow the fry to stay together for about 7 months. If you wait longer, they may start to fight and injure one another and flaring with one another.

SUMMARY: Take the female out of the tank. Treat wounds. See eggs develop into fry.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you're standing up and get an erection, it can be pretty obvious. If you want to cover it up, try sitting down and crossing your legs if necessary. This can help open up some room in your pants, if they're too tight, and make your situation less obvious. Shifting your knees up usually lets some space into your pants. If you're in public, try to sit down anywhere, but a chair with arms would be ideal. Any kind of reclining chair that you can sink back into would be perfect. But anything will do in a pinch. If you can, just head to a bathroom or your bedroom to do some rearranging. Both are as good a hiding spot as there could be. Depending on your body, it can be more or less comfortable to shift the evidence somewhere it will be less visible. If you can, try to move things around a bit with your hand, or by shifting your hips a little as quietly as possible. Shift it to point up, or point down, along the line of your zipper. The zipper in your pants creates a natural kind of bulge anyway, so it'll be less obvious if you can tuck it in that direction. Check to make sure that the head doesn't stick up above your belt line. If your erection is oriented sideways, that's often the most obvious and uncomfortable. Try to shift it up or down if you can. If you handle your erection too much people might think you are stimulating yourself. You might even ejaculate if you shift it around too much. If you are in school, or a similar place and you get an erection, look at the clock. How much time do you have until you need to move? If you're at the swimming pool, use your towel. Lay on a beach chair or in the sand until it goes away. Try to get your mind off what's going on down under and think about something else while you wait it out. Even tenacious ones will go away after a couple of minutes, usually, without having to do anything about it. If you can't get it to go away by waiting, go to the next section to learn some more techniques.

SUMMARY: Sit down. Shift it around. Use a book or your backpack to cover your lap. Wait it out.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Buy some colorful plastic tacks and use them to hang your photos. Or, brush some craft glue on the tops of some metal push tacks and sprinkle any color glitter onto them. Allow these to dry, then use them to pin your photos directly into your walls. To create a gallery, use the same color glitter on as many tacks as you need to hang multiple photos in the same area. Tacks will put holes in both your walls and photos, so make sure you are okay with this before using them. Simple double-sided tape can be found at any craft store and many convenience stores. Attach 2-4 small pieces to the backs of your photos, then press them onto your wall where you want them. Double-sided tape may cause paint on your walls to peel when you remove it. Be sure you are okay with the chance of this happening before you use it. For a simple and fun option, take a set of darts and stick one into the top center of each photo. Arrange a theme of darted photos to a particular wall area in a circular or square pattern. Darts will put holes into your walls, and your photos, so make sure you're okay with the size holes they will create in both before trying this option. Washi tape is a special Japanese crafting tape that comes in many colors and patterns. It's similar to masking tape, so it's gentle on your walls and your photos. Simply cut the tape to create a frame around your photo, and hang it anywhere you like. Look for washi tape at your local craft store or online. Arrange a washi tape photo gallery using matching tape and hang multiple photos in the same area. Try making a double border with 2 different patterns of tape for an extra creative look.

SUMMARY: Use colorful tacks for convenience. Use double-sided tape as another easy option. Dart your photos to the wall for a unique look. Use washi tape to create your own frames.
