I’ve been wanting a tunicate for a while and am thinking of finally getting one — polycarpa aurata. I’ve read this one is on the easier side to keep vs others.

However, in searching I came across a post on another forum saying that when sea squirts die they release nasty chemicals in the tank like cucumbers do. I had never heard that before and am wondering if anyone can verify or debunk it...

Anyone have info about keeping this particular type of tunicate?
