Hairy Purple/Pink Sea Urchin

Hairy sea urchins bring dynamic movement and natural algae control to established reef systems. This purple and pink specimen displays the characteristic long spines that define the species, creating striking visual contrast against rockwork and coral. Hardy and relatively undemanding, it grazes continuously on algae and detritus, making it an effective biological filter. Best suited for tanks with stable parameters and adequate space to roam. Nocturnal by nature, it may hide during daylight hours. Pair with compatible tank mates and ensure secure rockscaping to prevent accidental spine damage.
