I cant stand the smell of fish and our new roomate cooks it everynight. Its the really really stinky kind. Keeps us up at night. Polite way to deal with it? She does not speak very good english.

yeah you should light up a jungle of candles and so forth when shes cooking it. really overdue it so its obvious and maybe she will get the hint. afterawhile if she still does it tell her (perhaps with pictures) that everytime she cooks stank fish she has to light the candle jungle.

All food stinks if cooked inside the house. Depends on what food you are used to. Meat and onions! Smells when you talk when you are not use to meat and onions. Open the windows to lessen the smell. Goes with chicken or pork as well.
How about inviting her to share your food.Take turn in inviting her. This way, you smell fish once a week only.

i do no longer think of the situation could desire to be detrimental filtration in case you purely set up the tank 3 days in the past. If the fish are healthy, consistent with probability supply the tank a while to quiet down. in case you have products of timber interior the tank, they are in a position to scent humorous, because of the fact they are (slowly) decomposing. it rather is recommended to be careful with 'spraying issues' (i assume you advise deodoriser?) because of the fact they could contain chemical compounds that are undesirable for the fish.

candles work eucalyptis scented.. also insence! I would buy her fish that didnt smell and have a meal with her and tell her politely.
I probably would tell her that when she steps outside that she hersself smells that way and that you are just trying to look out for her.
eeeuw
