Default Stuffed Up

Hi All

Just wondering if anyone else keeps there reeftank's in there bedrooms.
Reason being- as the weather has been cooler outside, and with the house being warmer inside-I'm waking up in the mornings to a stuffed up nose. Now I know this could be alot of different things like smoking, allergies, or a cold perhaps. However during the spring and summer my bedroom window is always wide open and now it's always closed.

So my question is could be reef related, either from evaporation or maybe from gases produced by the skimmer
Any thoughts would be appreaciated-cheers Rich

I have the same problem. My tank is about 5 feet from were I sleep. I have always wondered if my tank was the cause.

Mine is, and I have any problems. I do have a ceiling fan running 24/7, however.

i think its from the skimmer, due to pulling all the organic's from the water,
should have a effect on the way you r nose is stuffing up.

I know when I was in the south there on a tour with the military i had problems from being around the salt water my nose was stuffed alot

HTH.
