Well it was more like a school of tiny ones. My buddy and I hadn't noticed them so they must have been small. I have marks all over my chest and back my arm has the most. They itch like crazy, but hurt like hell if I itch them. sucks but hey I'll be sure to check the tide next time I go out.

I have a question about your 20 gallon reef tank, is it harder to maintain than a larger one? Is there less margin for error?

You can use vinegar instead of pee, it smells a little better. Probably isn't as much fun though ! When we think there are jellies around, we try to remember to bring a small bottle.

This is why I always wear a wetsuit when I SCUBA dive. Never been stung, but have seen some bad ones.
