Caryl Posted July 12, 2002 Report Share Posted July 12, 2002 I know people say you should remove fish from a room being painted because of the fumes but, for those interested, I have just had new carpet laid in my lounge and the awful glue fumes and the smoke from the hot iron they used to join the carpet sections together didn't bother the fish at all. Now, if I could just convince Grant it would be OK to have an $8,000 colour laser printer (and not have to justify the expense) to play with...

Warren Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 I've never had trouble with paint fumes either. I've also had to do emergence repairs on the filter pipes with Marley Gold Glue. No time to wait for the glue to fully set. You could smell the slovents coming out of the water, but no dead or even fatigued fish. I wouldn't recommend doing this as there is no knowing what the long-term effects are. Paint fumes seem ok however.
