    Awww, well, that stinks. Did the " blenny" die before the urchin got to it or do you think that the urchin killed/ate it?

    Ummm, seems to me an urchin would have a tough time running down a blenny to munch on.

    But like you said, anything is possible.

    Like crabs, no room in my tank for urchins either. Don't trust them. Any of them.
