Slight pong ??

[SludgeMunkey]

I was mulling over what "pong" meant. I assumed you were not referring to electronic games from the 1980's... LOL

In any enclosure incorporating natural materials like plants and wood the odor you describe is perfectly normal. In fact it is a good thing if it smells that way. If it verily reeks of sour rot, sewage, or swamp you have a problem.

I myself no longer notice the smells of a multitude of amphibian enclosures. I force my kids to come down and take a sniff for me. (Yes, I finally found a use for kids!) If they sniff and reply EEWWW! I know I need to investigate the situation.

Haha thats so funny, it must be just a english expression of old ie:

Thats great to know that the smell is harmless. it's not offensive as in pong lol.

My 3 yr old grandaughter comes over tomorrow so maybe I'll put her to the test and see what she says.

Thanks alot

So when you Brits hear of Americans playing beer pong, does it conjure up images of Yanks drinking stinky beer?

As an old sailor, I assure you, we Yanks may not hold our beer as well as the rest of the world, but we dominate in all forms of drinking game...except in Ireland...
