Tuxedo urchins pick up stuff to camouflage themselves. They don't always make the right choices on their materials. I have had mine retrieve frags that have fallen out of reach, and also steal frags. He wore a mushroom around like a hat for about a month. thats how he got the name elmer(as in the glue)

That's priceless! If only you could talk him into staying with the rack in proper position and close to the light

I have a hatpin urchin I would gladly give to anyone who wants it. It is maybe 16" diameter and would be difficult to handle.

That's soooo funny. Urchins always make me laugh. My tuxedo urchin, wore a scarlet hermit for about 3 days as a hat.... the hermit just sat there watching the world with his yellow eyes. Not as funny as the rack part though.
