about 8 months ago... I had a problem with algee an my sump on the return side so i took my pesky purple urchin (who has caused a few rock slides) and threw it in the sump area:square: i'd look in on it from time to time.. and it was doing an awesome job... sunday around 2 AM or so i noticed something not right ... i didn't hear sump flow ... i looked and the return pump was dead ... so i pulled it out and put a spare in the tank... sunday mid-day i got home from chuch to see ALL the corals closed and REALLY pissed off... so i freak looking for problems, testing weter the whole 9 yards... well i found it today while inspecting my dead pump ... the urchin didn't just eat the the coliline off the wire it was also eating the wire insalation ...
would this effect my critters in the tank due to copper ... the shrimp, snails, ans stars are alive and well, BUT some corals are not to happy
here is the wire damage the urchin did....
