So my last larger urchin I ended up having to re-home because it was way too big. I locally bought a smaller one and it is super lively zoomin around tentacles out. I noticed it’s dropping these white dots off of it. I haven’t noticed any spine loss. I have noticed when it’s on the power head that it will also drop these dots but not as much as it is doing right now. Any ideas?

Yup that’s poo! It’s amazing the amount that it will do each day. Mine does the same each night
