I was scrubbing the glass on my reef tank, splashed it and got a mouthful of tank water. Anything to worry about?

Just that you won't be getting kissed my the little lady for a while.

Happened to me once or twice, that's why we have immune systems.

So, from your taste how high are your nitrates, Ca, alk and Mag?

PS don't be splashing around in the skimmer collection cup.

Yeah unless you have some allergies to it you should be fine. I have done it several times starting a siphon. There are some seriously toxic corals. However being diluted by your tank water should make them not dangerous.

I don't have any zoas or palys and I think they're the worst.
