Packrat - Blue Tux Urchin

A picture of the newest member of my family...

A Blue Tuxedo Urchin (Mespilla globulus)

It's amazing in that it eats macro, hair algae, and even CYANO! Not long after introducing him to the tank, he took up position in the middle of a baseball sized patch of cyano (long story ) and by morning, it was almost all gone.



He is quite the packrat, carrying anything and everything on his back. Can you see the pretty red zoanthids that he chose as a chapeau?

Amazing creature.

Dave
