JohnnyMTB Posted November 6, 2003 Author Share Posted November 6, 2003 'Koosdick- you may want to read up yourself - That is a "mine urchin" from the Florida Keys, grows to about 2 inches, and consumes algae. The spines on pencils are completely different, usually banded, pencils also mostly have spines only around the outer edge, they have a bald spot on top. Thanks for the incorrect ID 'Koos. Look up Eucidaris tribuloides - Mine urchin Heterocentrotus mammillatus - pencil urchin I suggest you read before you POST 'Koos. Link to comment

skeletor Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 First off, great looking tank Johnnymtb.. That purple digi doesn't look much like a digi to me, looks more like an acro sp. m.digi has small immeresed corallites, and no axial corallites.. your pic definately has axial corallites. -skeletor- Link to comment
JohnnyMTB Posted November 7, 2003 Author Share Posted November 7, 2003 Yeah, digitata is a montipora, digitifera (sp?) is the acro species. I usually just type "digi" to keep from screwing it up. Link to comment
