I can relate regarding lack of direct feel as I have a set of long aquagloves, apparently janitors warehouse carry some but I haven't been able to check them out.

Let us know where you find those calving gloves. I've been using the heavy long gloves and they are impossible for any fine work.

Will do. I hope to find some soon. I need to move some stuff around in my tank but I am too scared to put my arms in again.

I know its not common to get an infection like this but obviously there is some kind of harmful bacteria in my tank. The doctors told me not to put my bare arms or hands back into the tank. I got a big lecture about how dangerous bacterias can be especially from a marine environment since they have no clue what the strain is or how deadly it could be.

I remember a thread on RC where a guy seemed to have the same thing I did and many others joined in saying they had experienced it too. All needed antibiotics to clear it up.

I figure gloves are worth it...

That's where I got mine. I'm not sure if OA still has them. They apparently had them a while back.

The calving gloves are good for "feel", but they tear easily, so probably not so good for handling rock etc.
