Wow! I guess the moral of the story is... don't breathe in zoa-infused steam?

using a dremel with a cut off wheel can aerosolise this as well. aerosolised super glue isn't good either.. lol

WOW! I knew there was so deadly stuff in the seas, but in our tanks too! Time to get some latex gloves.

That is so true. Gotta watch out for the CaCO3 dust from using the dremel too... that stuff is terrible for your lungs.

The next time your at a meeting see me about literature on fragging, the DO'S and the DON'TS. This stuff is not worth taking for granted and can really put you in the hospital...
