Is It Safe To Do This?

Question

Is it safe for me to gravel vac a tank with two full grown, mildly aggressive Oscars in it? Gravel vaccing would involve me having one hand in the water. I play the sax, so I'd really like to keep my fingers. Could I temporarily use a tank divider to keep me safe?t
