gloves are for mimes and pansies...lol

I just use the spray gun in my kitchen sink to wash my arms and hands very well
and I own 2 pairs of aquagloves (neither of which I bought).

I would def go with a single 150w MH for your setup, you see pendants come up all the time for great prices on canreef and with that much light on a small tank, you can go to a 20k bulb, nice and blue so you don't even need supplements.

Like mentioned before, gloves are good for moving around live rock, and even then usually only necessary with lots of little sharp growths like forams. They usually dont allow the "fine touch" that is necessary when placing corals or doing maintenance. I am going to look into those Lee Valley gloves! I am allergic to bristle worms.

You will like the lee valley gloves, they actually give a better "touch" than the aquagloves,.. not as bulky. They also don't seem to get as sweaty and smell like a$$ on the inside like aquagloves

admitably, I have cut my fingers pretty good on sharp things on rocks before, so if you are delicate, the gloves may be a good idea.
