I have a question. I have had my saltwater tank 3 month and I have a urchin that completely ate my soft coral. What the heck is going on? Now I'm afraid to get more corals. Can anyone give me some advise on these creatures? I absolutely love them.

They need that? Sorry, I'm somewhat new to this, but this little urchin ate a expensive coral.Any coralline for it to eat?
Thank you for educating me. I need it. lolSome commonly Available urchins are not reef safe pencil urchins come to mind aswell as rock boring urchins. So assuming it one of those that’s probably your issue. Tuxedo urchins and pincushion are some of the best urchins available they’re captive bred, reef safe and non venomous while long spines are reef safe but are venomous
well I am embarrassed to say that I don't the name of the coral, but it was soft. Beautiful flowers and the urchin I think is a rock urchin. The coral was $45. to me that's expensive.What kind of urchin and what kind of expensive coral?
