Gloves for aquarium use - Aquarium Advice

fishman · 02-08-2007, 12:39 PM

Can someone tell me where you buy the gloves that can be used while working in the aquarium? I dont want to buy the ones off of the fish websites either. I feel those are way overkill and expensive. Surely there are other gloves you can use...The saltwater kills my hands and they stay really rough as they dry out easily. I dont want to put lotion on my hands as I feel even though you may wash your hands really well, there could still be lotion rements on them.
Any suggestions are appreicated as well.

Moved to hardware/equipment forum:

Have you tried the Coralife Aqua Gloves? I don't think you are going to find full length gloves much cheaper. If you don't need full length then HD or Lowes should have cheaper PVC gloves.

Or you could use tongs and keep your hands out of the tank completely
