Default How many sea urchins can I sustain in my Nano

Better to wait. I've kept them in a reef tank before, but
after a while it's like "ok enough is enough". They are
beneficial on the reef, but in a reef tank you want a more
perfect environment. It's like bugs being beneficial to
the environment, but you don't want them eating your garden.

So do you think I should resist for now and wait until I get the bigger
tank and then just keep one in there as well if I am really set on them?
My clowns are already prone to nip at my corals and I don't want a two
pronged attack so to speak....and in a 15g Nano there is less food
available and less margin for error....

TIA
Gill
