Baby sea cucumber?

Recommended Posts

I was filling a test tube up from my sump and noticed some sort of weird animal in my Refugium. When I took it out and placed it in a cup I noticed it looks awfully like a sea cucumber. I am wondering what I should do with it and if it’s reef safe. Should I keep it in my refugium, put it in my tank or chuck it out?

Keep it! They are cool to watch feed.

Does anyone have any care recommendations for it?

They are filter feeders or eat on benthic creatures.  As long as you are feeding other things, it will benefit from it.

Urs looks amazing. I decided to keep mine in the refugium as he seems happy in there and I reckon my wrasse would eat him.

Definitely a perfect wrasse snack.
