Complacency is the most dangerous safety violation...... After hundreds of parachute jumps you heard that line over and over until it droned itself out. Palytoxin is dangerous, be safe, well, stupidity should hurt. I finally had enough of the Pandora invasion in my reef and decided to just start yanking away. I was so proud of myself as I reclaimed old space. About two hours later I just started feeling horrible. That pukey, light headed feeling you get when you’re having the flu or a really bad cold. I thought the “RONA” had finally come for me. I was miserable all night. Today I woke up better and then my stupidity dawned on me. I obviously (and thankfully) didn’t get a lethal dose but it was enough to snap me out of my complacency. Be careful fragging zoas and palys, we’re supposed to enjoy this hobby, not die for it!

Very glad you didn’t have a cut or anything!
