Remove. Those guys eat a lot of calcium and alk.

If you like it then, leave it there.

How many urchins do you have?

I had one urchin in the overflox box and the coraline algae in there was growing faster than it could eat it.

well, like wat the mod said, the coraline algae can grow faster then wat the urchin can eat. thing to look out for urchin is that it may topple ur corals. and of coz handle wif care.
