Urchin with a BTA

Is this ok, or will the urchin "graze" on the anemone?

Thanks

Its fine. I have seen my long spine come in contact with several of my rbta's. No issues so far.

I've had my urchin try to graze on a carpet and it contracted on it. the spines went through the carpet and it wouldn't release. tried to pull him out and ended braking some of his spines. the carpet could not swallow him as the spines were holding him into it,tried directing some waterflow on it and still nothing. in the end I left it to natures way. woke up next morning to find the urchin on the rocks with some mucus of the carpet still on the spines. the carpet recovered fine.
