Bloodworm allergy major issues!

[dayak]

I didn't tell him to stick his hands in the water though Just do a large water change. Outside of the tank shouldn't be too contaminated so it shouldn't hurt him at all to wipe outside with a hot rag, not touching the surfaces.

Never once said to soak in his tank water ^_^

LOL i know but the chance is he will without any protection

you have no one to ask for help taking off the bloodworm who arent allergic to it?
is the allergic triggered on contact?
have you try using long sleeve rubber gloves?

Allergy happens when putting hands in water or handling worms,
I dont want anyone else to risk enduring my symptoms,
rubber gloves, large water change, lots of antihistamine ftw!
change to the stinky mysis shrimp!!!!!

I have the same problem but our severity may not be the same. I just bare with it until I am done then wash my hands with dish detergent.

Use gloves. The ones with the long sleeves are like $14 or so and they help me a lot. I am allergic to something in my aquarium water as well but I'm allergic to everything anyways sooo.
