Common name: Sea Cucumbers

Dendrochirotida is an order of sea cucumbers known for their branched tentacles, which they use for feeding. Members of this order are popular in the reefkeeping hobby due to their role in cleaning the substrate and water column by consuming detritus and other organic matter. They are generally peaceful and can coexist with a variety of tank mates. However, they require stable tank conditions and should not be housed with aggressive fish or invertebrates that may harm them. It's important to research individual species within this order for specific care requirements, as some may have specialized needs.
