plastic tweezer like tongs

[cross]

dont know if this is the right place to ask this but, i'm looking for some long plastic tweezer like tongs. every time a frag falls or i need to move something i have to put my hands in the tank. its a 10gl nano and i cant see buying those long gloves to only go 10 or 12" into the tank. anyone know where i can get somthing like this?

I have seen them in some of the reef stores and you could probably check petco or petsmart.

They're not plastic, but this is what I bought for doing just what you want.

Aquatic Forceps from http://www.drsfostersmith.com/ under coral propegation in the fish section

Cross, you can get plastic grabbers at both Barbie's or Kevin's shops. They may be a bit large for a 10 gallon though...lol.

If they're stainless it won't matter. Odds are you will never have them in the tank/water long enough to rust or degrade in any way. You can probably find a lot more on ebay by looking for 'forceps'.
