All I know about urchins is that they will pick up little frags, shells, etc, and carry them around for camo. I left them out of my CuC for that reason. My snails move things around enough as it is.
FishyReef had one of her urchins go rogue and start munching on a really nice piece of LPS, and that urchin went into a ten gallon urchin jail tank lol
A lot of people keep them and love them. Im just afraid of them. :)
