florida smell in tank and house. help
 
my 90 gallon tank is currently smelling like florida through the basement where it is. The fish and everything is okay. But I am getting the smell throughout the basement.

Is there anything that I can do for this? I wanna get rid of the smell.

Just had this problem when i moved houses. I found that lighting some candles really helped. Every 15 mins i would go down and blow them out and then relight them. Next day, no smell!

Running some carbon might work as well.

Proper skimming and regular water changes would prevent that from happening, and as stated Carbon will help.
