[joebob7]

i was just moving a PPE in my 3G tank and i thing one of the palys was cut. There was a some milky stuff drifting from it.
Will this hurt my other corals!?!?!??!?!

At the moment, I would be more worried about any getting on you? Did it contact your skin?

probably not but wash your hands very well because it can certainly hurt you!! I would wash my hands in alcohol and then a couple of times with hot soapy water.
better safe than sorry!!

That stuff is no joke and is extremly poisonus to the human blood stream. Do not get it in your eyes,open wounds, mouth and always wash your hands after leaving the tank to avoid cross contamination.

no, my hands never toutched the water, i was using a stick to poke around.
thanks for the help
