Stop thief

Last night I looked over at my aquarium and see my urchin has attached my birdsnest coral. The second picture. The first picture is from a minute ago. Lol

Is it the smell of the frag plug that makes him claim it?

I call them mobile frag racks. They like to decorate themselves for camouflage.

I hate to love urchins.

What they lack in in cuteness they gain in charm.

Ahh urchins, they are so interesting how they just take everything with them

Urchins and decorator crabs always go for the most expensive frags in my tanks. Good taste I guess.

I moved the birdsnest coral and I believe he maybe going after it, but he's so slow I can't tell.

I moved it around and he hasn't touched it since. I'm in my office today so I can't monitor his probation. This weekend he was good.

I have 4 different types of urchins in several systems.
Last 2 I just took with a flashlight.
