I go bare hands but sometimes I wear hospital gloves. I want to buy a pair of those gloves that go shoulder high. I don't like how the salt water dries out my skin nor do I like the stings of bristle worms and the occasional pinch from a crab.
I'm a big fan of beer and whiskey. Devon aka Built enjoys some herbal fixes and Bill is a fan of white whine spritzers and his own nose candy

Gloves are for girls & pansies... I'm allergic to everything in this hobby, and I don't wear them. You must just have delicate hands and a low tolerance to pain....
And for the record, I'm a JD/Jager (straight up) kind of gal...

I wear gloves when dealing with live rock and coral but for everything else no. But u should. Seems like wearing gloves in this hobby is like using hearing protection while mowing grass, it's a great idea but no one does it.

Haha. I go bareback when messing with the tank. Course I've got the scars to prove it. Wear gloves and eye protection. Also a condom. A raincoat would b prudent as well. As for drinking and reefing how do u pass up moving that zoa rock to catch more actinics.

I strongly suggest wearing gloves for your own personal safety. Just because some of us like to reef nekkid doesn't mean we should.

I have a pair of reefing gloves and rarely use them,depends on what I will be handling in the tank,though I have little concern for my well being,it is a good idea to use they so to not get stuff from your hands/arms in the water that could possible harm the critters in there

I don't recommend this though.

I will wear gloves when I finally pull all my rock. I hate grabbing bristle worms.

Even worse is when the needle sharp worm tubes break the skin. That takes weeks to heal.
