Apparently GSP Urchin hats are all the rage...

Picked up a little tuxedo urchin at my LFS yesterday and so far he's a beast of a lawnmower on the green hair algae in my tank.

Today he's decided to accessorize himself with a nice green star polyp hat. (also picked up yesterday, and clearly not glued down well enough.) Must've heard they're super trendy right now. Haha

LOL. He'd do well at Carnival in Rio as well.

He's finally chosen a more suitable fashion accessory.

My new tuxedo urchin came with a a zoanthid on its head. While this was super cool, I didn't know if the urchin would hurt the zoanthid, so being the butt hole that I am, I selfishly removed the zoanthid and wedged it in some rock work to watch it grow. Keep in mind I have about 15 zoanthids that are not anchored down in my reef. The next morning (this morning) I find the fella with the SAME zoanthid on his head!! I guess he can keep it. He's trying to be extra sneaky this time, and has also covered himself in shells and coral bits hahaha. I love this guy!

I want to see more urchins with hats!

I had a Halloween urchin a few years ago that heard about the harmful affects of sun damage so kept on it's sunscreen (came with an emerald crab that wouldn't let it go when I put it in the tank) and sunblock (coraline algae sheet)
