What exactly does the stand smell like? (eg. sour fish guts or dirty goat breath)

I can't smell it, but if you detect those odors on plastic devices, it may smell different to you.

Since I haven't experienced either of those scents I really don't know. It smelled like a skunk spray or cat piss to me. Yes I've been unfortunate enough to know those smells.

i hadnt noticed a smell; however, i did take a whiff and there is a smell, but not that strong or particularly offensive.

Sour fish guts, if you really put your nose to it. I've never smelled goat breath though...

I've never heard that. I expect any food to have an odor; algae included. I've been using it for years. I also give to my dogs, who love it. It is helpful for maintaining healthy blood sugar levels.

My salt box doesn't have an odor other than the natural wood smell. I have pink Himalayan rock salt in mine.

Hard to describe, maybe a bit musty/grain like? When it was new it was quite strong, I put a few drops of mint essential oils to make it more refreshing. After a few months the odor is very faint and doesn't bother me.

Fishy is not normal! It's completely plant based and should have a pleasant, neutral smell.

it's food grade. smells like citrus and cedar combined, but weather will wear away the smell quickly if your plantars are outside.

No odor, although the ads say the breath takes on a rather garlic smell, which I didn't experience. Of course, I didn't go around asking people to smell my breath--only those I felt trustworthy. :-)

No odor on mine...the fit is a bit loose when I bought 7 months ago and now the edges is really giving way and dirt is getting in the sides. The only reason I bought this is the magnetic stand behind it which makes it very handy.

whilst it is made of fish, you can smell fish if you put your nose close to the tub, but when it is in the feeder, it does not stink up the house, so to answer the question, it is a little fishy, not very

There is no fish smell nor fish taste; if you get some on your skin, then you can detect a fish odor, so just be careful in handling the packets.

I agree with Yvonne. I bought it a couple years ago and it seems like the same thing. I have no idea why it smells funky.

I have not noticed any odors or smells but this isn't my primary device so I don't use it a lot. I will deliberately check it and if there is any strange odor I will comment back. :)

It smells like rotten fish since it's made from fish. How long it smells depending on when it rains or the smell just goes away in a week or two. We only use it outside.

I don't remember if I noticed anything when I got it, but probably not. I just got up close to mine to see if there's any odor now, but all I smell is the sisal. How annoying for you!

Normally I have not noticed a strong fishy smell. If I take a sniff, which I just did to my container, there is a faint fishy smell but I had to take a sniff to smell it.
