He must love the hobby. This makes a good case for protective handgear. I have a very large hammer which has been in my tank for about 4 years. I have handled it many times without a problem but latley I fell a very uncomfortable warm sting. I'm probably developing a sensitivity and started wearing disposable gloves a few months ago.

I wonder if the Nemocysts can penatrate latex or polypropelene gloves.....May make a case for using Nitrile gloves....After my last nem sting there all I'll use.

I have had a rash on my hand for the last 7 year. It began when I started cooking. I am curently a chef and I have a salt water tank. The dermatologist told me that I have the worst profession and the worst hobby for what I have on my hands. I have used many creams and ointments. I am curently taking an antibiotic called cephalexin. I took this picture with my cell phone just a minute ago. The sad thing is...this is my hand looking good!!!
