    I got tired of waiting for my urchin to come out from hiding. So I moved a couple of rocks so that I could find it. Oh I found it alright. It is an empty shell. There is nothing inside of it.

    I sent them an email, I am hoping that they will replace it.:bigcry:

    I don't have anything to eat him. I have no idea. I am hopeful that they honor their 14 day Guarantee. I paid a fortune and to not be able to enjoy it.... this just sucks.

    Damsels:Cloudy Damsel,Yellowtail Blue and 3 Stripe, clownfish, Diamond goby, 6 line, flame hawk. a few crabs.

    It was delivered on the 3rd. crawled under some rocks. I could see it, and it seemed to me that it was moving, but I guess it was just the current moving it around. I really couldn't get a good look at it. I didn't want to disturb it. But it got the best of me so I moved the one large rock so that I could get to it.

    Well if any of the stock is to blame, I would say the Hawkfish, My book says its known to kill hermit crabs and other inverts... Nothing speciffically about urchins but...

    Their guarantee will at least credit your back for the item, not the shipping, but their T&C cover everything with fish, inverts and plants, no exclusions.
