Free long-spine urchin

I have a beautiful long-spined urchin if anyone would like it for free. I've been putting alot of new frags into my tank (can't afford the big stuff) and this guy keeps bumping into them. Great algae eater. Let me know and I'll hook you up with him.

Ray, maybe we'll have to make sushi out of him?

The word free has me itching here, I'm thinking about it.... . I just don't want the same problem your having. Is he a beast or a lil guy?

he's big, i guess. I would say that his longest (top) spines are about 5-6" long. Then they get smaller as they go down the sides. His body looks about the size (and shape) of those marshmallow cookies my grandma used to like. Can't remember the names of the cookies tho. Pinwheels?

I think I'm going to pass, thanks for keeping me in mind thou!

Well Steve told me that he has a 90g at a school where the kids have Bangai (sp?) cardinals. Everyone here has said pass it on to the kids. With attitudes like that I'm sure the Bangai's will be hosting in the urchin in no time. Thanks to all my fellow reefer from a present=day high school teacher.

Hmm? Wonder if I should setup a tank at school and ask the locals for some donations?

Ray, that sounds doable especially if we can paste My-SEA logos all over it!!!!

fishguy449 · #16 01/30/2006, 06:43 PM

Logos? Why didn't u say so. Maybe a nice My-Sea paint shceme on the marine porcupine too!

STACKER · #17 01/31/2006, 07:10 AM

Now all we need to do is come up with a paint scheme... LOL
