Farewell destructo, job well done... traded him in today for a few nassarius snails and an electric blue hermit. Such a pretty urchin but he's dragged too many corals into unwanted battle. He won the old war on the red turf algae now he can cause havoc in the shops 500g display for the rest of his days.
My tuxedo urchin is hard at work and wearing his little construction hat I made! I've noticed that having a proper "hat" has made him less likely to grab snails and hermits and when he does, he is more likely to release them without a fight. Great addition to my CUC and he does an excellent job clearing nuisance algae and chrysophytes!
