  • Heart urchin (Maretia planulata)
  • Family: Maretiidae
  • Reef Compatibility: Reef safe
  • Temperament: Peaceful
  • Care Level: Easy
  • Diet: Omnivore
  • Heart urchins like other echinoderms have tubular feet for locomotion and spines for protection, unlike many other urchins however, Heart urchins spend a large majority of their time foraging in the samd bed for detritus and scraps, very similar behaviour to that exhibited by the more common Sand Dollar. The constant turning over of the sand bed makes them a useful part of the clean up crew in a marine aquarium.
