My frogspawn stung me! And now I have stinging red spots on my hand...
FYI, I know I'm fairly new to this hobby, and I'm learning something everyday, but when cleaning your tank, DON'T TOUCH THE FROGSPAWN!!!!
Thanks for listening to me everybody, lillylegs

to get rid of the stinging, use white vinegar and then make a paste out of water and meat tenderizer and put it on the spots for a while. this is an old recipe for scuba divers, I always carry this stuff in my bag.

newreefers,
I grew up on the coast of Texas where there are many man-of-war during season, and my mother used to make a paste of vinegar, fresh water, and baking soda. At least i think it was baking soda, its funny how you only remember the painful parts when you're a kid... anyway, thanks for the advice, the spots are still there but it doesnt sting anymore.

I can't remember who it was, but a while back someone posted about some gloves with really long arms on them for just this kind of problem, maybe a search will find it.
