If you were exposed and never caught it, it could mean your immune system is particularly effective at wiping out TB. 
I still wouldn't put your hands in the tank with open wounds though, risking 6 months to a year of very unpleasant antibiotic treatment ain't worth it.

This is a very informative thread! |
Mostly gastrointestinal pathogens, including Salmonella (as already mentioned), Aeromonas sp, Plesiomonas shigelloides, and Vibrio cholerae - all of which cause diarrhea. See here (theres a PDF link).

If you have a marine aquarium, beware of V. vulnificus

You saw correctly, it is indeed an Invitrogen bottle that was originally filled with horse serum
