To be fair, there are LOTS of reports of palytoxin poisoning. Originally it was said that only one group of zoa's from one Hawaiian tide-pool contained this. SO the odd's of anyone one of us having it are slim to none. Now that people know about it... there's stuff on lots of aquarium sites saying that ALL zoas/paly's contain it. If this is also true, it'd be more common.
In general, the warning is fair, if you're feeling messed up, see a doctor. There's lots of weird crap in our tanks, some worse than others.
