So ive been wondering why my tank has been bombarded with cyno and my nitrates were kind of high. I had an idea as i had not seen my urchin in a couple of weeks but was not about to tear the tank apart to find it. So i was sitting here about 5 mins ago looking at the tank and i noticed this thing out of the corner of my eye in the back of the tank. Guess what? URCHIN SKELETON! Totally empty almost like a snail shell. So i guess its Water changes from hell for the next few weeks. I pulled the skeleton out and it has to be one of the most beautiful dead things i have seen in a long time so i figured i would share a picture.

Now I know what I found while diving in the Dominican. It looks exactly like what you have only it is white and hard like a sea shell. It is about the size of a softball. Interesting??
