I hit the urchin jackpot with some live rock this year. I have found 3 long spine urchins and one that looks like the a "pincushion" or "pink" urchin (short spines, loves to carry things around, especially 2 of my feather duster worms that didn't bury into the substrate).
Add to that number my pre-existing tuxedo urchin and I now have FIVE urchins in my 55 gallon reef tank.
That seems like too many. Any ideas about stocking density? I'm particularly worried about the 3 longspine urchins since they can grow to be 10" each!
Thanks!
