Acoustic Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 So my urchin has settled in and made himself too comfortable. He decided last night to camouflage himself with my red macro algae. Now every where he goes he's sporting this gigantic clump. It kinda makes me mad but everyone else thinks it is funny. Link to comment
Acoustic Posted November 4, 2003 Author Share Posted November 4, 2003 My fiance took this shot. The hermies think the urchin and his clothes are a playground. Link to comment

Crakeur Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 whenever the plastic water dispersers fall off the powersweeps (once a week) they float down into the back of the tank. The tuxedo invariably finds them and I get them back. Nice little game we play. Next time it does this, I will snap some shots. Link to comment
JimmyZtank Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 acoustic, got any extra macro? I live in SD Link to comment
Acoustic Posted December 9, 2003 Author Share Posted December 9, 2003 I have since set up my new tank. I will have some to frag away in about 2 months. Sorry. Link to comment
evassj4 Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Acoustic, did you get that macro locally or online? Link to comment
evassj4 Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Also, where did you get that urchin? Looks awesome. Link to comment
Acoustic Posted December 11, 2003 Author Share Posted December 11, 2003 evassj4 - 1) I bought the macro at Tri-City Tropical fish. 2) I bought the urchin at Aquatic's Warehouse. A note on my tuxedo urchin: What a waste of money. Do you see what it did in that picture? It tore up everything in my tank. Did it eat my hair algae? Nope. It ate all my nice coraline and made the rock look bleached dead white. This thing quickly became the bane of my existance. I ended up selling it for 5 bucks cause I was so mad at it. Link to comment
evassj4 Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 Thanks for the warning. Too bad, it looked cool. Link to comment
