What type of maintenance are you doing in the tank where you need to have your hands in there often?

My tank is fairly small (only 33 gallons) so I often find myself slipping under my liverock in order to siphon out the detritus. Since the percs are hosting in my corals and getting territorial, they often nip at my forearm while I'm trying to get all the gunk out. They'll even make an effort to swim halfway across the tank to get me; I enjoy having them alot but it's annoying enough that sometimes I just give up on the rest of the detritus.

I've been creating a barrier with a large fish net but it only works for about 10 seconds - they always swim around it.

I'll look into the Lee Valley gloves, I'll need something thinner for precision.

Update: I did a quick search on Google Maps; I think this is the place if anyone is interested.
