No, sea urchins are animals. They are echinoderms (meaning "spiny skin") and are related to sea stars, sea cucumbers, and sand dollars. They eat kelp and other forms of algae.

I think a sea anenome and a sea urchin can live together because i have a little aquarium and there is a sea urchin and and a sea anenome (if that's how you spell it) living in there and they were perfectly fine. BUT if you have a sea urchin do not have any crabs in there, because my sea urchin killed one, and almost killed another one by taking its claw off. :(

What is urchin barren?

An urchin barren is a marine ecosystem characterized by the dominance of sea urchins, particularly the green sea urchin, which has overgrazed kelp forests and other marine vegetation. This overgrazing leads to a significant decline in kelp, resulting in a barren landscape devoid of plant life, which negatively impacts biodiversity and the overall health of the marine environment. Urchin barrens can develop when predator populations, such as sea otters, are reduced, allowing urchin populations to proliferate unchecked.
