I was at my LFS and saw this sea cucumber. I really want to know the specific species. After hours of scrolling through google images. The closest resemblance I found was Giant California Sea Cucumber; however I haven’t seen anything online about having one in an aquarium.


Thanks.

Yes it's a sea cucumber. Not a Giant California. Likely a Holothuria species. Body structure looks similar to H. impatiens but the banding pattern is off and the tubercles are a little too big
 
Also Giant Californias are coldwater and there is plenty of info on them if you know where to look :)
