If you work in your tank a lot or have a giant skimmer please look at the above link. My girl was out yesterday at a local shop here in ATX and brought this home to me. You might want one.

I sure didn't smell like roses before. It seems to work well. I was allowed to sleep in the bedroom again. I'm hoping in a few days I'll be ablt to sleep in the bed again.

Any piece of stainless works the same way. If you have a stainless kitchen sink, just rub your hands over it while running cool water over your hands. Works for garlic, onions, fish, etc...

Consumer Reports did a thing on this a couple of years ago - and yes, it does work!

Can someone explain why it works?

Yeah Bill that old MAAST joke about using your sink for that purpose is what reminded her of it, that's why she bought it.

Even the experts at CR didn't know WHY - just that it does work...

Oh, yeah. For those that hunt, it works well for that really nasty smell from bucks in rut...

Well Mike if she didn't like the way you smelled before she definately isn't going to like the way you're going to smell now. I finished emptying out your 380 gallon tank last night. I still need to take the lights off the canopy and clean your tank but it should be ready for pickup this Sunday and sorry no soap is included :D.

The only thing I know about stainless steel is if you get different wires made of different metals and stab yourself equally with them the stainless steel one will hurt more. One of the things I learned being a submarine mechanic, your always getting poked by wires and braiding.
