Hello, I’m wondering if reef lobsters and any knobby stars or long spine urchins would be able to survive with puffers if they were possibly added first? I know puffers will probably devour the lobsters at least but if that’s the case are lobsters able to live together? If not what would be good thank mates for them?

I have a blue spot puffer with inverts and stars no issue, but that type of puffer has the venturi body (little mouth), not like a porcupine.
