[NyJets51]

They look like the Gloves that are used to handle Radioactive Isotopes.

yeah i don't know why they used such flaming colors.... but....


tangs usually aren't poisonous but i think a few might be..

When you mentioned a Tang BIGgourami, I assumed you was refering to the "Scalples" on there tail being able to inflict nasty cuts. I have NEVER came accross a Poisonous Tang. Is there such a creature.

There are inexpensive "no-cut" gloves available that will work fine. The ones used in the plants I work in are made of kevlar over a wire mesh. They prevent injuries from the many razor knives used when working on bulk products. They also come with rubber dots or full rubber coats to make handling wet objects easier.

we have these at work (deli) they work ok for slashing motions but i doubt their usability for a stab or poke..

chain mail could work but i wouldn't want to be sticking steel in my tank every couple days
my only other 'problem' with them is they smell after a while...

and for predator, idk i thinking there might be... maybe i was just thinking of rabbitfish..

again those neoprne gloves are slash and puncture proof.

if you not worried about getting skin oils into your tank, then a pair of "clean" dish gloves work well. not going to help against a puffer, trigger, lion but will help when it comes to moving rock and corals around. keeps your hand protected from coral stings and theres more protection from anything that may be on the rock.
