Urchins are like bulldozers in a reef tank. I have several and have moved them all to the sump.

Ann,
You can get a lot of info here: http://www.wetwebmedia.com/urchins.htm Also, be aware that urchins will eat your nice pretty coralline algae. Ninong  |

I have a Royal blue tuxedo. He cruses all over the tank. Rock sand, and glass. Not sure how much nusance algae he eats but he doesn't bother any corals and doesn't affect the coraline. They also pick up all kinds of stuff and attach it to their body. Mine is covered with fan worms he has collected. Cool creatures IMO.
