Short Spine Rock Urchin

This is for a Short Spine Rock Urchin, Echinometra lucunter. Great Algae Eaters

Size: ~1-2+ inches.

These hardy urchins are great for eating undesirable algae off the rock and glass in the aquarium. This variety has thin spines and are sharp making them not safe to keep with our seahorses.  In a 30 gallon aquarium we recommend 1-2 short spine urchins to give you a general stocking idea.  Colors and patterns vary.  They are hardy and easy to keep.
