    Well personally I would rate them up with cigaretts and I have seen somne nasty stuff.

    The smoke be it cigs or incense can land on water and then the chemicals ooze into the water. No one may attribute issues to it but I dont think it is a good idea.

    Of course, in the house and in the same room may be different.

    I do know, that for example, the AquaC protien skimmer instructions specifically states that smoke WILL affect the perfomance. That is for two reasons, one, the residue is being cleared out of the water, ie. not good.. and also the smoke affects the perfomance similar to the way oils in the water would.

    Bottom line is Cigs are not good for either fish or people so why try to make excuses, incense are the same as far as I am concerend.

    Of course I am a 4 pack a day reform so I may be bias here.
