25 gallon cube.

Not shy at all.Not even when I stick my big claw in there.
I shot about 58 pics to get that pic.lol
Damsels don't sit still.

Very happy to report that this fish is not aggressive.He has not bothered my sharknose at all so far which was a big concern.(they are both blue and yellow)
He has adjusted to his tank very well.

Look at that punam!!

 

Look at the path of clean this thing has left.See some bubble algae but for me thats a piece of cake now that i can see it.lol love this thing!!!!

 

Love this tank! Pretty fish, great corals, great photos! The green and purple would look great in my place - major colors in the house are green and purple!

 

How are Sparky and Pinhead (or whatever you have named the Tuxedo Urchin ) settling in? I have never had an urchin, but seeing this in your thread and I all of a sudden have an interest.

Love that Damsel too. You do a great job with livestock selection Vinnie--you find stuff that isn't run of the mill, but is still very appropriate for your tanks. Are you sure you don't want to add a tang next? HA!

 

LOL Thanks Thor I have been doing this quite awhile and try not to set myself up for failure.
The urchin NKA (now known as) Pinhead is just amazing and is doing quite well.Sparky is just a joy to watch and has a nice fat belly!!
You have inspired me to update the thread with pics.Coming soon.

 

I missed this somehow.Thank you very much!!!

 

My Urchin has died.
Not sure why.It was eating and decorating itself with no visible spines being dropped.
I did notice he wasn't quite as mobile lately and seemed to like grazing on the coralline.This leads me to believe the red algaes in my tank were not meeting its nutritional requirements.
My fishies/corals with the exception of the gorg. are doing very well. The Starkii allows the Sharknose to clean him.lolUnexpected bonus as he now pretty much ignores Herbie and sits patiently at his cleaning station.

 

Sorry to hear. I wish I have gotten one sooner. I love to see them crawl around the tank.

 

sorry to hear about the death, the rest are fine and healthy and the tank looks great

 

Been a while so heres some shots.Everything is growing and doing very well!!
Added a few rocks so the fish had more caves.



Hate the thought of chopping on this but it is quickly overwhelming my tank.Its almost 2 inches thick now and it has grown over all the old skeleton.



These look much better in person.



Sparky is almost full grown.This fish when healthy is an absolute stunner imo.The end of the dorsall fin is begining to get a red stripe with orange blending with the vivid yellow.
