Tuxedo urchin

[Walter White]

Anyone know where I can get me a small tuxedo urchin locally? Anyone have one they want to part with? Its for my 28g so Id like a smaller one.

FWIW I had one of those that had a taste for my yumas.

 

[Walter White]

Sweet I want rid of those too! LOL :whoo: I keep pulling them off my rocks and 5 more grow back in their place. The yumas I have are just plain green ones that decided to start migrating up my rock and are irritating one of my favorite sps.

 

[FinsUp]

Then you'll naturally get one that won't have anything to do with yumas. Murphy's law. LOL

So true!

I bought two from Cris cap a while back. Worst case I can part with the small one I have.

Let me know if you have any luck or would like to work something out.

aquamart usually has about the healthiest, most active, small urchins ive seen around, saw a long spine there that made a golf ball look huge!

 

[Walter White]

Cool thanks guys!

I think that's the kind great white had a few, were like $15 or $24. Get me a pic of those yuma's I could probably buy a few off ya.

yeah not really planning on making any trips up that way. Ill check out Aquamart or see if Elite can order one for me.

I would just give them to you but there is one really large enough to even pull off. Each time I rip off one of the full grown ones it leaves tissue behind that start growing new ones. So I have about 15 of them right now but they are all the size of MMs. Once they are big enough to peel off again Ill let you know and you can have em. LOL

What might work is similiar to what I've done with aiptasia. With the right tool, just excise a cone around it, pulls off the whole thing intact still attached to a little bit of rock.

If you don't want to drive all the way to Aquamart, I could pick one up and drop it off at your place theoretically. Going up to Great White today actually.
