Not a big fan of sea urchins at all. So I should be good with it. Btw where did you purchase him at and for how much was it if you don't mind me asking.

I'm not 100% sure on their diet but they are commensal with urchins. To my knowledge they don't actually eat them. I've gotten them in before and kept them with urchins but don't have any extensive experience with keeping them beyond that. They seemed to do ok when they were given an urchin to cling to so I'd imagine they can forage whatever is on or around the urchin.

I have a friend that imports fish, he recently moved overseas so no longer has a facility here
