Urchin in a Predator Tank?

[Kasey Grohowski]

Can a sea urchin survive in a predator tank with a coral catshark and snowflake eel? Will it's spines injure either fish? Has anyone successfully kept an urchin in a predator tank? Thank you.

I currently have one in my predator reef with a trigger and some bird wrasses. He is the only one that survives for some reason though. I have tried adding additional urchins and they get torn up.

Tuxedo.....I have tried adding long spined urchins, which you think would be fine.....but those got torn up also.
