Eucidaris tribuloides, also known as the Antillean lance urchin or pencil urchin, is a fascinating invertebrate with a prehistoric look, typical of Caribbean reefs. It is recognized by its straight, thick, and robust spines, which give it the nickname of pencil urchin.
This specimen is a versatile omnivore: it primarily feeds on algae but also enjoys meaty additions such as pieces of mussel or fish meat. This varied diet makes it an effective detritivore, perfect for maintaining the natural balance in a reef tank.
Suitable for both reef and fish-only aquariums, Eucidaris tribuloides is renowned for its robustness and longevity. It is generally harmless to corals but can move small fragments or decorative elements while moving, due to its strength and morphology.
Ensure regular feeding if natural algae are scarce. It also appreciates nori sheets, leftover fish food, or specific invertebrate foods.
Eucidaris tribuloides is an original and functional species, ideal for aquarists looking to introduce a decorative and useful omnivorous urchin into their marine aquarium.
