I have a couple of pairs of gloves and have had to become more diligent at using them as of late. I get exzema on my hands when exposed to moisture or chemicals, probably due to long term exposure to all kinds of nasty crap in my former occupation as an auto mechanic. I have prescription cream for it that helps, but its better to not irritate my skin in the first place. About the only time I get my hands wet now is when I feed, and then it's just my fingers. All other tank work is done gloves on. Better for me, better for the tank since I don't want the oils and medications from my hands in there. It does reduce dexterity though for some jobs. I also have to wear gloves when using any kind of household chemicals too. Its a major PIA.
