I have a urchin has grown much in about 4 months....he has basically snapped most of his spines short so he can go in and out of all the rock work

Haha! Well I have the upside down fake plant, and they like that...kind of. LOL! I'm not worried about looks...the baby tank is hidden under the stand of another tank.

I have a short spine urchin (tuxedo?) and even he has grown fast! He mostly eats the coraline, however it now knows where the nori gets put, and seems to love it. Not sure if a long spine would eat nori or not? Cool to watch move around though! Would love to see a pic if you go the homemade route!!!

I got a tiny one in July, maybe 2 inches across, did well in my 8g cube. I measured him at just under 11 inches last week.
