Quick Question about reef Safety!

Just wondering,
I have been browsing through the forums and heard people saying to wear gloves while handling LR and things in the tank. Ok But what gloves aren't harmfull to the water?

They do have what is called aqua gloves thand there are also plain clear plastic gloves that I pick up from time to time in beauty supply places, there are no chemicals on them. They also sell arm length gloves that are disposable. Pet Supplies, Dog Supplies, Cat Supplies, Pet Meds & Pet Products: Drs. Foster & Smith Pet Supplies . I believe that petdiscounts.com also.

There is also a thread in here titled (I think) reef dangers that you may want to read. It may also tell you what other gloves you can use.

Reefkeeping Dangers

Some of our sponsors may also sell the gloves. I personally do not like the aqua gloves because they are just too clumsy and bulky. I like the disposables.

Coralife make Aqua GLoves they go all the way to your arm pit & they work really well. I would also suggest Goggles
