just needs a touch up and water change. no biggie! as for the algae maybe more options, like a pincushion urchin, there algae eating machines or only dim the white portion of the lights maybe. I have done both and it worked well for me. I actually changed my routine because of work , I get up an hour earlier each day to do small maintenance stuff to my tank and do water changes friday nights.
@@My525XLRedSeaReefer urchins are easy. They graze around and clean rock and glass etc. quite entertaining as well. They will move frags if not securely glued. I had one carry around zoas for like a year. I have two in my 150.
@@My525XLRedSeaReefer I actually purchased mine threw reef cleaners. It was cheaper than lfs and and animals arrived well packaged. They have some interesting invertebrates too. Time was a factor for me due to work schedule and far drive to my lfs.

Thanks for watching CJ! My whites are low already. I've never had an urchin before. Are they hard to care for?
