    Emergency: Anemone Nuke and Urchin

    My long tentacle anemone got caught in a side opening of my AIO tank. I had to split it in order to remove it from the opening.

    What’s on top of my urchin?

    There is this fluid filled sac that’s on top of my urchin. It’s not something that it picked up, it’s attached to its body. I took it out of the water. For a few seconds to inspect it and the sac deflated. I put it back into the water and it inflated again. What is this thing?

    Tips on how to get rid of Coralline naturally?

    Hey all! I have a 10+ year old 24 gallon tank at home that is self-sustaining, but has tons of Coralline algae in it. I know some people like it, but I don’t. Can anyone give any tips on what clean up crew to add to attack this? I was thinking a zebra urchin and some trochus snails.

    Can my urchin be saved?

    My pincushion urchin has been showing signs of stress for about a week. I did a water change and I think I messed up the salinity and made it too low. He spawned and then stopped moving around the tank. His little grippers and spines would move, he would react when touched, he just would not...
