Shortspine Urchin is a type of sea urchin that belongs to the family Echinometridae. They are found in the tropical and subtropical waters of the Indo-Pacific region, including the Great Barrier Reef. As their name suggests, they have short spines covering their body, which can vary in color from purple and blue to green and brown. Shortspine Urchins are primarily herbivorous and feed on algae and other plant material. They play an important role in maintaining the health of coral reefs by controlling the growth of algae and promoting the growth of coral. In the aquarium trade, Shortspine Urchins are popular due to their small size and attractive appearance. They are generally considered to be hardy and easy to care for, but like all sea urchins, they can be sensitive to changes in water quality. It is important to ensure that the aquarium is well-maintained and stable before adding a Shortspine Urchin.
