What would cause an upstairs toilet ball cock to start bobbing up and down of its own accord?
The flush valve (flapper) is leaking slightly, lowering the water level in the tank. To see if the flapper is leaking, put some food coloring in the tank and see if the color shows up in the bowl. This means the flapper is leaking by. Do not flush toilet for a while to see if the food coloring shows up in the bowl

Can snails live in a toilet?
Only if you feed them and have water circulation. If you flush the toilet often or use it for it's main purpose, the snails will probably be flushed away or poisoned. If you clean the toilet bowl and they are living there they will be killed. They can, however, probably live in the tank of the toilet, considering that the water circulates. With no source of food, though, they will die. ~Wigglerthefish Fish Help Forum

Should you flush leftover food down the toilet or should you throw it away?
throw it away case the toiet will get clgged common sense No-one is suggesting large joints of beef! What I want to throw down the toilet, as I can't compost them, and they go manky in the rubbish are things like rice, pasta, scraps of food after a party. Of course I don't routinely throw these things away, but sometimes the best laid plans.... Anyway I always break it up so it won't clog the bog.
What parts of the body do you use to bring in and digest food?
Your digestion body parts relates to your esophagus. Which is basically the inside part of your neck that foods and drinks go down. Then your food goes through the reproductive system to get its food churned up. Then when your food hits the bottom that is digestion. After that the digestion is basically telling you that you need to go to the bathroom. You basically poop it out. then once it lands into the toilet you flush the toilet then it goes to the sewer then into the ocean then we get water from the ocean and clean it and it becomes drinking water that you basically drink every day.
Will flushing food down the toilet clog the pipes?
Sometimes it will, sometimes it won't. You're taking chances if you do. Same as putting a bunch of paper towels down the toilet. Usually the toilet will back up and overflow before the lines will clog as the p-trap built into the toilet is smaller than the diameter of the sewer pipe.
What would cause large air bubbles in a downstairs toilet there is no upstaires toilet.?
When the up stairs toilet is flushing.The toilet tank releases water to flush down the toilet bowl.While the toilet tank draining out water to flush and before refilling .The air that gets trapped before the floater shuts to refill the tank.That may be the air that causes the pressure to blow alarge bubble out from downstairs toilet. Bubbles in the toilet that you flush might mean that you need your sewer line cleaned. A significant amount of water leaves the upstairs toilet in a relatively short amount of time. If the drain pipe to which it is attached is "small" (three inch rather than four inch) or partially plugged or insufficiently graded, a small air pocket can form immediately in front of the oncoming waste and water. It will follow the path of least resistence. If it requires more pressure to continue down the line than is required to escape through the branch line to the downstairs toilet, the downstairs toilet will "burp", especially if it is not vented seperataly from the main vent, or if its' vent is plugged or partially plugged. I agree, first try cleaning the line. Do it right, with a proper size blade or spud running well out of the house. If that doesnt solve the problem, investigate the vent. Answer 1 is TOTALLY incorrect. It is addressing the "flush valve," [also refered to as a "flapper"], suggesting the possibility of air "ingested" before it recloses [to allow refill of the tank] "may" be the source of the air bubbling out the downstairs toilet. That air simply goes into the upstairs toilet bowl, not down the drain/waste pipe. Therefore, it cannot be related to the bubbling downstairs. Answer 2 is also totally incorrect due to the fact it is refering to bubbling in the toilet which is flushed [the "upstairs" toilet], which is not related to the bubbling in the downstairs toilet described in the question. I agree with the explanation in Answer 3, with the exception that I would visually check [with a powerfull flashlight] the vent stack for the downstairs toilet [or at least the viewable section of a shared stack], understanding of course, that unless the vent stack is a perfect straight shot, a visual check would be limited to only the straight run section. In our area, over 95% of houses are single story, and checking the drain/waste vents from the roof is no big deal. On two or three story houses, it may be better to try cleaning the line(s), assuming that adequate cleanouts are available. Many of our older houses were not required to have cleanouts, and we have break into walls or dig earth to install them. Otherwise, IF the client WILL NOT go for the cost of add-on cleanouts, we HAVE to work through the roof vent stack opening. This is not uncommon for our area.
