Who uses gloves?

[deep6er]

I dont use glove but im going to. I just found out I have Mycobacterium marinum. If I wore gloves I might not have got it. Its rare my doctor said he saw it only once last year. Has anyone here had it??

Doesn't corallife make some nifty gloves for aquarium use? Kinda pricey, but aquarium safe
Wai's had some last time i was in there (Calgary). JL probably sells them too

J&l has these:

I wear gloves when I can. I have some of those long up to the shoulder ones and they are great. I also use laytex gloves for fraging etc but not always. I bought a pair of those long tongs a couple months back. Those are awesome and I rarely have to put my hand in the tank know.

if you just looking to protect your hands from bristle worms and such and not worried about keeping your arms dry as well, go to a industrial supply type place and look for a box of the blue nitril disposable gloves.

I wear latex gloves handling corals and such but when it comes to the big stuff (rock) I wear the big heavy duty coralife pink & purple ones

How does one find out if they have this disease? My hands are always in the tank, without gloves.

How could I find out? Or get tested? I should just steal a box of latex gloves from work.. there free.
