funky smell?

GoinSalt · 10-05-2006, 04:53 AM

I've noticed the last few days that there is a garbage smell coming from my sump area.

Any ideas what it could be?

I had my trigger die the other day but it wasn't in the tank for too long before i noticed it. Although there was no smell until I noticed my trigger dead, so maybe there's something to that.

As for everything, all equipment is working properly; just cleaned out my collection cup Wednesday; haven't checked my parameters in the last couple of days.

The smell seems to be coming from the fuge itself. I haven't trimmed my macro in a while, think that could be it?

Dead macroalgae anywhere? I know when I pull out macroalgae and forget to through it out it really starts to reek (even if it's just a little bit).
