Broke down the 240 and removed the corals without gloves until I got nailed by a huge bristleworm. My hand didn't swell up so I figure I'm not allergic.
After about a half hour, my son and I both couldn't stop coughing. Is it possible we are having a reaction to something in the tank? Anybody ever heard of this kind of reaction after touching corals?
Here's what we were touching:
Thousands of Palys
Hundreds of zoas
About 15 RBTA's
Toadstools and other softies
