Send Dollar

[Artur 1972]

Do you guys have any experience with Sand Dollar Urchin. Are they good send sifters? My LFS says Yes but I want to ask your opinion.

 

[Calappidae]

Urchin parral to sandsifting starfish. A more common name for them is heart urchin for better searches.

Like the sand sifting star.. unless the tank is very large.. deep sandbed.. and very well established (1 year+) it will starve to death after it runs out of food.

I started search internet and there is so little information on them. What I found they are hard to keep. My tank is 125 mixed reef, 4" sand bed, 6 years old...

You have a good chance then. With that establishment and sandbed he should thrive for awhile.
