hen you get live rock that is not cured it can smell bad. However, when you are curing it you will only smell it if you somehow learn to smell underwater without drowning
I did not realize this, I was under the assumption that it just smelled. I guess that makes sense.

It may sometimes stink when you're transferring it to the tank or changing the curing water. I tank-cured mine during cycling and there was a day or two that the room smelled "fishy", but nothing unbearable.
