    Long spine urchin

    So my long spine urchin has stripped all algae from my 93 cube and started eating what at ever his heart desired. After a week of good behavior and feeding 6x6 Noritake sheets daily he's back to his old ways. Anyways he's looking for a good home as mine is no more. He has a 2 to 3 inch body.

    Long spine pencil urchin

    I've seen quite a bit of it in my research. As tanks get stripped of all algea they start looking for other foods to eat, and for a few it's been Montis or other sps. I have a 90 gallon and have had him for two years. Originally he was in a 90 long covered in coral one and some normal algea now...
