question about this sea urchin

[aceheart1976]

i think this is a bali short spine sea urchin, im wondering if they are reef safe or not, and if they have any special needs?

guessing no one has any thoughts on them

My thoughts are that you probably have a juvenile and that it's pretty hard to come up an accurate id, which makes it hard to say anything specific about the urchin. Sorry.....

leslie, it is slightly smaller than a tennis ball i would say or a little bigger than a golf ball. ive got it in a qt tank right now until i can find out if it is reefsafe. would hate to put it in my reef tank then it start eating my zoos and things lol
