Rubbers?

So how many of you wear rubber gloves when working in your tank?

I've had tanks for many years without any issues not wearing gloves, just careful moving around rocks. Before sticking my hands in the tank my normal process is just washing my hands with some mild water.
 
I know that some folks use full length gloves... I don't. I make sure I have clean and dry hands... nothing on them. It is probably not a best practice....but the way I manage my tanks over the years. Noiw that I have a newer....deeper tank.... I am going to have to come up with another game plan. Perhaps get some sort of grippers... that wont rust and corode in a salt environment. That said, I am sure if I can reach it without diving in... I probably will do it bare handed.
 
Yeah, I don't use gloves neither...I've tried in the past, but I felt like I had no control with them on.
 
i still do when moving corals around..but i'm a beginner and would rather not find out the hard way that i react heavily to a sting...
 
I am newer at this, but I where latex gloves. I was watching a youtube video on how to frag zoa's and they recommended you wear gloves and I have used them ever since.
 
Don't play with your bristle worms renegade lol, I don't use them either mostly because they don't let me feel what im doing and they fill up with water because my tanks are so deep im up to my armpits to reach the bottoms.
 
Only have found dead bristle worm before no live ones but i have seen the affects of that!! lol not fun or good looking!!
