    Default Sea Urchin

    So my g/f walked by the tank and said, "i think your sea urchin is bleeding!"
    So I go in there, and its not bleeding, its spittin out eggs!!!

    Theres not another urchin in the tank, so they wont be fertilized. But the fish sure enjoyed the free buffet of sea urchin roe!!

    Yes, i knwo when it taking a dump. This was not the white stuff coming out of the middle.
    There were 5 areas on the top of the sea urchin that was spewing out thousands of tiny red eggs. Which the fish were eating.
    Dont worry, your not bursting my bubble, b/c it was doin more than takin a crap.
