So, actually found a Tuxedo urchin at the LFS finally. It’s only the size of a jawbreaker at best, but excited to have it. Never had one before, but I do have a black urchin in another tank.

Anyway, just wanted to share. Hopefully I can get better pictures tomorrow when the lights are fully on.

Thanks,

I love urchins. One of my favorite inverts actually. Do glue down any corals you don't want to move. Such a simple step can keep anything from potentially dieing. Great workers though! I just love the camouflage they pick up. One time I thought I lost my urchin. Turns out it grabbed my macroalgae and wrapped it around before hanging in my caulerpa Forrest lol!

Here is a better picture. It’s been crawling around the top of my rock. Awesome blue color. Pops in the daylight lighting.
