Weird. Was it a Pincushion? Tuxedo? My Pencil ended up being the coral eater but they tend to eat rocks anyway.

Rock boring, I thought he was a safe one, never carried anything or touched anything.

I had a Halloween Urchin nipped a torches tissue band last year.

So I'm done with them, they might be safe 99% of the time but they just get carried away munching sometimes.

I've heard of them mowing through zoas, leaving paths across encrusting corals, even Acros.

Urchins gonna urch I suppose

I moved the Jolly Rancher to the lower right and the Bubblegum Digitata to the middle left. Put the Blue Tip Duncans where the Digi was.

Loving those Duncan’s!
 
Loving those Duncan’s!
Now that they've been in the tank for a couple of days I need to get another picture. Then I'll have to decide what I'm submitting for the LPS POTM so @kevgib67 has some competition!




















DISCLAIMER: please note, I didn't say GOOD competition, just competition.
 
Blastos, Bowers, and Alveopora should be ready to move over. Maybe I'll be motivated tonight. I was already motivated to rearrange some this evening and accidentally made 2 new Bubblegum Digitata frags so now I have the main piece and 3 small frags.
 
I really do not see a lot if bubble digi for sale. I don't really see a lot of digis ever. Such a simple and beautiful coral too :(
I like mine.
 
Well, that didn't go according to plan. The Blastos have encrusted the Aragocrete rock they're on . I tried unsuccessfully to remove them. I'll try crushing the rock tomorrow. Hopefully I haven't stressed them out too much.
 
It's a lot brighter in person.

He's moving over currently though.
 
Dirty glass. Definitely going to have to clean tomorrow. I was hoping for a FTS tonight...
