Would a long-spined black sea urchin be suitable for a tank with a Porcupine and Black Masked Puffer? They have munched on hermits and snails in the past but I would like to be able to diversify my tank's inhabitants and I am at my tanks capacity already in regards to fish.

Thank you.

I would not recommend one for these puffers.

In a recent research study conducted in the Keys by Ken Nedimeyer and Martin Moe, puffers were seen on more than one occasion munching on long spine black urchins.

Thanks for the help.

Are you aware of any inverts that would last longer then a quick snack?

Unfortunately I can't.....Some will report success.... but for how long ????  I have had some inverts live for several months without event and then the inevitable happens.
