Sand Dollar Urchin

Do you guys have any experience with them? Are they easy to keep and good send sifters? My LFS says Yes but i don't trust them. Thanks.

I did some research a while ago. From what I could find they don't do well at all in captivity as they need a large deep sand bed. Or maybe were doing some thing wrong. IMO Until someone figures what they need really these creatures should stay in the wild.
