Frogspawn stings
Hi,
I have had my frog spawns sting me (especially my largest one) and I immediately run hot water (hot as I can stand it) over the rash for as long as I can stand it. This will help prevent some swelling. I can't remember where I learned this. I am guessing this treatment may "kill" or wash out the sting nematocysts that the coral "flings out" at you.
It's been my experience that you don't have to get very close to the coral - a couple of inches will do to ellicite a reaction from the coral.

PS I sold that large coral in order to have more maneuvering room.
