    My Urchin, I think it's called a Royal Urchin,
    made an appearance a few nights ago.

    When I got up early, no light, I often look at my DT with my Iphone's LED light.

    I caught my Urchin- whom I rarely see anymore on the glass.

    This pick was in low to no light, with then IPhone's flash also.

    I've had it about 2 years. YOu can see the debirs it carries along as well.
    LIke the small snail, or maybe an empty shell.

    Cool! Glad you found him.

    Yep, it's a Royal aka Tuxedo.

    Todd, so do you really see it period, or just on the glass? Just curious, as mine cruises the whole tank ever day it seems! I don't mind mine taking debris, but when it takes frags, that's when I curse at him :)

    Thanks Mr Bill, I never really lost him, just rarely see him as he/she's always in the rock work.

    I rarely see it. Only when he/she comes out of the rockwork and/or is on the glass.
    None of my fish bother it. I've never seen it on a frag, yet anyways.
