Mirek I've had fish-only marine tanks since 1976. Quit smoking in 1989. The only adverse effect I noticed of smoking on my tanks was on air pumps. The flapper valves and filters would gum up and have to be replaced fairly frequently. I don't know what effect smoking might have on reef animals. George Patterson Drink is the curse of the land. It makes you quarrel with your neighbor. It makes you shoot at your landlord. And it makes you miss him. |
If you run carbon it should take out any of the pollutants from the tank.
The carbon wont help your foolish habit from destroying your lungs though, but perhaps your fish will outlive you...

No , not really. Evangelizing doesnt save anything,it certainly doesnt save
souls, and busting on people smoking might save someone from a horrible lengthy death from emphysema like some of my granparents who took an entire year to die , wasting away in a hospital. Besides, as a resident of California, it is my solemn duty to impress upon the rest of the backward world how eliminating smoking in all public places makes the world so much better a place. And why are you commenting anyway, if anything your comment should be , " how in the world can you smoke and keep exotic fish anyway". D "RicSeyler" wrote in message ...

This is an international newsgroup... smoking is still considered the
'norm' in many countries and cultures outside of the US. If anyone chooses to smoke in their own home then who the hell are you to preach otherwise... So, as technically correct as you undoubtedly are, we don't want need or want to hear your option on the personal health effects of smoking in a reefs newsgroup. It's the rest of the world's solemn duty to impress upon you as a US resident how eliminating your massive pollution (as your country is world's largest emitter of greenhouse gases) and signing up to Kyoto will make the world a much better place!...and at least that is reef related !!! You Californian residents can keep your keep you advise to yourself and smoke it.... Jeez... People in glass houses... "Dsybok" wrote in message : No , not really.

My last post on the subject... The poster (not me) who asked the
question said both him and his wife smoke in the house, so what the hell is your problem... we don't need a feckin' morality lecture on smoking. On the subject of breathing other people's pollution... what about the rubbish the we have to breathe here in Europe (and especially the UK) that you US folks send us over on the jetstream every day ! BTW... I'm not even a smoker ! "Wayne Sallee" wrote in message : Most people don't live in a home by themselves. Smokers don't just smoke in their homes only.
