Came home today after feedind my common snapper some fish and noticed a very strong smell....FISH. I think he popped that oily' bladder that fish have and that's what is causing the smell. I also noticed an oily' residue on the surface of the water.

Since he is kept indoors in a rubbermaid tub, I would like to know how to eliminate this smell. Rinsing the tub and srubbing the rocks didn't get rid of it 100%.

Setup:
Rubbermaid Tub
Fish Tank (natural) rock substrate
3 large rocks for his hide
