Aquarium Advice Regular
Last night my royal urchin was doing fine, today I found him dead All of his spines had fallen off in one spot. When I scooped him out he was completely hollowed out (probably the crabs got to him after he died)
I know that urchins cannot tolerate high nitrates but he has been with me since the cycling had ended and has been very active up until his sudden death.
I tested my water and everything is normal
ph=8.2
ammonia=0
nitrites=0
nitrates=20
phosporus=0
calcium=460
I can't understand what went wrong. Are they hard to keep? I need some help to what might have caused his untimely death
I really liked him and would like to get another one.
