Painting nails near fish tanks

[Shu_Ting]

Hi! I know it’s not Ok to use deodorant sprays, perfumes, air freshener etc near the fish tanks. But is it Ok to paint your nails near fish tanks? Sure, nail polishes are smelly. Will the smell kind of get into the tank for some reason?

thanks a lot!

Why risk it?

It's not an aerosol, so I'd think it would be fine.

Fumes? Vapor? I wouldn't.

You wouldn’t think so ,
But the smell ...... does it in any way attach oxygen ? And can settle I don’t know the answer .

My wife asks me every time before lighting a candle . But she will stand in the bathroom while dosing herself in perfume ...
makes no sense as the bathroom is just around the corner from the dt .

Well... I thought members here might have some answer. Can’t paint the nails in the bedroom because husband very sensitive to smells.

With the bathroom door closed should be ok. We do that too.

Not sure about fumes. It’s not that much because nail polishes are really tiny bottles.
