FREE: urchin

I have an urchin that needs to go. It's about 3" with spines. I don't know the species, I've never seen this kind before. Willing to give away for free, but trades are always welcome. I'm free pretty much all day Sunday (4/30), or weekdays after 7pm. I live in Fremont.

Here's a pic with flash:


No flash:


and just for kicks, here are a couple of sideshot pics of my tank. Sorry for the blue hue, my camera doesn't allow me to adjust the white balance:



Thanks for looking,
Gabe

I may be interested in this..
Any special needs?
I have a 12G glass nano, I would really like one but only if I can sustain it's needs, so it stays happy in my tank. Last thing I want to get is something that will just die because I don't have what it needs, or know how to feed it etc..

I'm in the bay area often, and have a few softies for trade if you wanted them.

Sorry Steve, I couldn't hold it any more. Had to take it to the LFS.
