My tuxedo urchin which I've had for over a year suddenly stopped hauling bits and pieces last night. Today, I see a greyish white patch on him. It's still alive. About the only thing that I think might work that I have is hydrogen peroxide. I want to swab the infection. Should I dilute the peroxide? It's the generic stuff, 3%, I think.


Tank parameters seem to be not way out of line alk 8.2, mag 1140, Ca 360, salinity 35ppt temp 79
 
Thanks, but it's dead. The stuff on it was rot, I think. He stunk. He went fast. I saw my sandsifting starfish today and it looked good.
