So, I have a fairly large porcupine puffer sitting in a temp tank at home waiting for me to move some stuff around and put it into my wife tank. There is one about half the size at work that has been here for a few months that I have grown attached to (a customer brought him in covered in ich and I nursed him back to health in the back room and hand feed him everyday and he splashes water out of the tank at me). Have any of you guys tried keeping 2 porcupines together?
 
I never have ... from what I understand, they're generally pretty solitary, but recently saw a video of about 40 or so juveniles hanging out under a bridge somewhere.

I would not recommend it, it could end badly.
