My skin use to break out in a rash when ever I stuck my hands in the tank water. If I didn't wear gloves I'd be iching all over place. I'm allergic to a heck of alot of stuff though.
I can't live without my Aquagloves and stainless steel tongs.
I say err on the side of caution. What you can't see can hurt you.
There's no embarrassement about playing safe.
I'd rather prevent and infection than treat one.
