Just banished mine to the refugium after I rotated it throughout the other tanks. The tanks were to clean and he kept eating my xoas. I love them, but like all urchins, keep well fed. Once they start eating the coral they wont stop. He's having a good time in the fuge. We'll see if I can keep enough algae in there for him.

took care of my turf alga issue. Never once ate any coral. Did eat some sponges and coraline.
