Ever grabbed a Fireworm? I HAVE! (PICS)
Well, today was the day. Pulled everything out of the tank so I could add a bunch of LR and more sand.
Now, I KNEW I had a LOT of bristleworms, and have even seen what I am sure are fireworms in the tank in the past, but I have almost never worn gloves, so, couldn't be bothered this time either... Well, I had about 75% of the old rock out of the tank and went to grab another piece. Well! Whadayaknow! SOMETHING (besides my overprotective Clown) bit me! So, without further ado, here is what happens when you grab a worm without gloves... WHAT A GOOBER! So, after MUCH dancing around and scraping, I got most of them out and finished up the job, but I still "feel a slight pinch" once in a while. GLOVES, PEOPLE! They are your friends!

A bit too late though. I agree though! Use gloves when you're putting your hands where you can't see!

Something about her telling me I should put gloves on about 4 times right before it happened! It IS funny when someone does something they know beter than to do and suffers (small) consequences... And, if you can't laugh at yourself, WHO can you laugh at? Turbosnail: Yes it was a painful lesson on glove use, but like dc said (WHAT ARE YOU DOING OUT OF THE LOUNGE! ), I HATE gloves!

If you get nailed by enough of them, you'll become immune, and the bristles won't stick in as much. Don't ask how I know.
