I accidently blew a zoa colony off the rock it was glued to and had decided to place it on my urchin once I got around to it. I woke up the next day and the colony was missing from where I had set it. I looked around a bit and was surprised to see the urchin had already put it on himself!

We were just snorkeling in the Keys and saw a emerald crab with a tiny RFA on it's back! But it buried itself in the rubble on the bottom too quick for me to catch it or even get a photo.

But here is an urchin we saw. First as we found it on the bottom and second cleaned off for photo purposes. BTW, after it was released it was completely covered again in just a few minutes!

Even the juvenile long spine urchin we saw had a small brown sponge held in close.
