Forest fires air quality alert and a fishtank

[Benj2112]

I am curious if smoke from forest fires can have any impact on a fishtank? Anybody have any thoughts? I am located in Minnesota and we are getting some stronger smoke from some fires that have started in Canada. It actually smells smokey out, visibility is being impacted and there are air quality alerts.

My growth slowed down in my systems during the California fires last year. No losses though.

I don’t expect any significant impact for air that you would breathe.

The Camp Fire burned across our ranch last year. Smoke was so thick for a week visibility was only 50-100 yards. No obvious negative effects on fish tanks.
