    Default Free Purple Long Spine Urchin

    Free but will accept anything for some more color in my tank

    Okay So I have an Urchin free to a good home! Its a Purple Long Spine Urchin. Originally from the coast, bad hadnt seemed to harm anything until today! I noticed he stripped a line off one of my corals. I know its not a disease because the coraline below it is stripped in a line up towards the coral then it just continued on up. Now I have never seen him harm anything like zoas/mushrooms/sps or anything until today! Hes been in there about a year or so. He keep the algea to a low. Good for a Fowlr or Softie tank possibly but I cant promise anything. Maybe you have a Huge sump and want to put him in there to keep it on a controlled level. Up to you, Hes just free! Ill get a pic of him real quick. I do like zoas/frags or anything of useful trade, but Dont have to trade to take him home

    Look at the coral just ot the left of him, HE ATE IT! It was perfect the day before and doesnt look like decay looks like his beak got it!
