Yeah, I already tried fragging like crazy well above the affected area and it didn't work.

I also picked up some nice pieces of dry rock today which will be for a new cube I got for a smoking deal, thanks intarsiabox

The new cube is 24" x 24" x 20" and isn't drilled so I was thinking I might try turning it into an AIO. If anyone has any suggestions on how to set up the AIO compartments please feel free to advise

So the death has seemed to finally stop but not until it took some nice (and not cheap) frags. I added another urchin because the spiny rock urchin isn't doing much of anything. The new one is a blue tuxedo and I can see some areas he's munched on so hopefully he does a better job.

I have some new zoa's & paly's coming. Can't wait to see them and I they all arrive okay.

Purple Heart Zoa
Devil's Armor Paly
Emerald's On Fire Zoa
Silver Rose Zoa
Magian Paly

I hope they do a good job. My spiny one isn't a long spine though.
