hello so I have a 36 gal bowl front fish tank with 3 sword tails two snails 5 neon tetras and 11 guppies (pet store said all where male) and one sucker fish..... any ways I got the tank about 2 months ago now. I had asked when I could put fish in and I was told at the pet store about a week and to bring the water in and get it tested so I did and they said it was fine so I got some fish and put them in the tank... but about 2 weeks ago I noticed this odd smell coming from it .... its not a good smell also its a bad smell and makes me whole room smell to. I do 25% water change and I do the gravel vac every Sat. I have had koi fish in a 75 gal tank (yeah I know it is a big no no now) and it never smelled so I am kind of lost I went and tested the water and here is everything that came up on the test strip and I have no clue what is goo and what is bad GH (general hardness) is 30 KH(carbonate hardness) is 80 PH is 6.5 NO2 is 0 and NO3 is 0 .. I am kind of at a lost here what I am doing wrong or what I need to do I changed the filter and cleaned it out also but that didn't help at all :/ thank you
