I don't smoke. I wouldn't let anyone smoke in my house or car.

Never smoked in the house when I was a smoker (two years since I quit)

Skimmers do react to the O2 levels in the house. Most notice it after parties. The skimmers react differently when many people are over.

New homes in the summer notice it too (unless they have a good HVAC system)

Well maybe u should worry about your own health for your childrens sake.

Being the son of a smoker I personally hate all smokers. They are selfish, ignorant, and weak. When you tell them to quit they'll give the "it's an addiction" speech, BS!!! Quit all excuses!! If you really cared about your children or your health you would stop without ever looking back.

I know what it's like to have an addiction because for a few months I was addicted to weed, and as i saw what it was doing to me I quit and I was only 14.

This is my 2 cents, take the advice or leave it, it's your grave your digging.

Enjoying something that will either speed up yor death or give you a serious cancer doesn't make sense to me. Smoking ruins families and lives, especially mine. I would lovebto live in a world with out smoking.

I will say I shared your sentiments when I was your age and both my folks were smoking. The three of us kids gave them such a hard time that eventually they did smoke.

I'm pretty sure the OP just wants to discuss the effects of smoke on the tanks though. I think it must have a negative effect myself.

On a related note I keep the bathroom door shut for a few hours after I'm done in there because I notice my corals brown out if I don't.
