what kind of urchin??


more than likely the little devil wore your zoos as a hat and left them behind the rock that you cant get at....if your lucky some day youll just notice them barely sticking out all discolored and needing light and when you go to reach for them they will be gone for ever washed into the darkness by the flow......urchins are evil


welcome to the wondeful world of zoanthids:P cheers

It's unlikely, but possible your urchin are your zoas. As Reefwars suggested, they are likely down some crevice somewhere. I have lost more frags then I care to remember as a result of my tuxedo urchin doing this. I finally put him in my sump!

My false fire urchin ate some of my zoas right of the plugs, that's why it's no longer in my tank.
