Anyone want a ~4” Black Sea cucumber? Your tank must have sand. Maybe good for someone’s sump with sand?

Full disclosure: When these sea cucumbers are disturbed, such as when they are attacked by a predator, they release a sticky, white, thread-like secretion from their anus called Cuvierian tubules. This is used as a defense mechanism against threats. They are the only poisonous species of sea cucumber.
