A Pencil Urchin has long thick spikes which a puffer couldnip at. What about getting a tuxedo urchin, there's nothing for the puffer to bite onto.

Hello again. Im glad you found this site. I think you're getting a pretty good concensus now of the urchin and a puffer.

They can easily be flipped over & eaten from the underside.

You would be amazed at what at small puffer can destroy. I have seen a small puffer take chunks out of a very large plec. My fahaka also ate an apple snail which was bigger than his head
