Gloves for fragging

[Snoopdog]

My tank is almost all zoas now, they are everywhere and some of my palys are invading my zoas. I have been fragging every two weeks but I need to do it even more, likely every week now. I am starting to feel uneasy doing this without gloves on. What is a good set of large gloves to get that will not break the bank. Probably in bulk.

I can't offer you any promises that they are any good. I happened to watch this video on YT this morning and gloves are mentioned and put to use. He also provided the link in the comments.

Those seem like overkill, plus they are so thick it would be hard to actually do any detailed work. Maybe my thought process is off on that but I do not think I would be a fan of elbow length gloves.

I don't really do zoas, but my personal preference is disposable gloves from HD. If handling rock, I prefer to use the heavy duty black ones since they don't split easily. For frag plugs, I will do the cheap blue ones. My concern having one pair is first, any residues from cleaning them and second when I touch one type of coral, then another. If you get lobo/chalice slime (or some other more aggressive coral) on your gloves and touch something like an acro/candy cane/... some corals will not react as nicely. With all zoas, its not a concern, but thats my logic. The disposables are easy enough to swap if needed vs washing in between.
