I'm not sure if this is the right thread so sorry if its the wrong spot...
But I have a pin cushin urchin and he's dragging around abunch of algae and sand all tangled up on him..... should I try to clean him? Is it even safe to touch him? Or just let it go and let it work loose on its own...
Thanks in advance and once again sorry if its the wrong thread.

Are you sure its not a tux ? They will have all kinds of stuff attached. If so leave him be. If you decide to clean him please send some pics.lol

Its normal. They are kinda like a decorator crab. They will wonder around the tank with crap stuck to them.
