the "smell" is starting to get annoying

[daniella3d]

the smell? what smell?



No smell on both of my aquariums unless I remove some of the water and expose my coral and live rock to air and even then it is not very strong smell.

This "smell" is the reason that I'm designing a new fish room on my new house which will compliment a new inwall tank. I'm used to it; but my family complains (especially when company is coming over).

"Honey, I can make it so that you don't smell a thing; but I have to upgrade the size of the tank and build a dedicated fish room" was how the conversation went. Done deal.

The only thing I "smell" now is a new tank build thread. Hee Hee!

It could be humidity. Try opening a few windows, running a fan or getting a dehumidifier.

A properly running reef system shouldn't produce any smell detectable in the room it's in unless your nose is right on top of it.
