Default Gloves

I am looking for ideas on gloves to wear when I need to do something in my tank. I have the big lobster handling gloves but they are way too bulky.

A few weeks ago I was moving some rocks and a few hours later I got a rash. Thought nothing of it. Two nights later I was in the hospital for it because it was burning so badly. After a week of antibiotics, its ALMOST gone. The doctors said its not the first time they have seen this after people putting their arms in an aquarium. They don't know what bacteria it was (just that it was a bacterial infection) but said it could have been very dangerous left for weeks.

Anyways, never again NOT wearing gloves.

I want to find something more disposable I think since I dont put my hands in the tank very often anyways.
