be careful

I think everyone pretty much knows the dangers of zoanthids, but I think a lot of hobbyists overlook basic stuff that we keep in our tanks. So anyways, since I had this past week off I did a lot of work on my tank (mostly re-aquascaping and fragging). I have never worn gloves in the past and it has never really been an issue, since I usually wash my hands well afterwards. Well later in the week I noticed that my thumb on my right hand was all swollen and red and itchy. Went to the doctor and I guess I've got some sort of infection going on
. Hopefully the antibiotics will help. Guess I wasn't as careful as usual

Don't want to make anyone paranoid, just be careful.

College life is good, I get to play with the 530gal tank here at Penn State so that's all the tank I need.

Pics please...

I'll see what I can do with my phone, no promises though. Suffice to say my thumb is a nice red/blue color and about 1.5x normal size. Sucks cuz I'm right-handed and do a lot of writing and drawing.
