My son bought it for me for my 3yr old 26g. It had plenty to eat. But I upgrade to a new 40B, which is bare. What besides dried Sea Weed can I feed it? Our LFS has none and it will take at least a week to get some via online.
 
I actually haven't had either of my urchins eat dried seaweed - tried leaving it on clips, and even handing small pieces to them, and they weren't interested in it as food (they did accept the small pieces to wear as lovely cloaks though.) But they really like the New Era marine grazer discs.
 
If your local grocery stores have an asian food section check them out for Nori. This may be a long shot in the U.P., but it's worth a try...

I'm in Ann Arbor and could mail you some, on me, if you'd like. Shoot me a PM!
