I have red spotted cardinals, will they do the same?

Hmm... I don't really know. Banggais are generally regarded as very peculiar in this respect, so I'm gonna guess that they don't, but that's only a guess.

I read on how the male will seek out the urchin, and the spines will protect most of the young until you can pick them out the next day. Not sure if this is 100% true or not, someone actually did this so he wouldn't stress the male and possibly having him spit out the babies prematurely, but if its not true, the urchin will probably go with the babies anyway... I guess trial and error will be the first method I'll be using. Also I was planning on 4 to start, and then selling the two that get harrassed or dont pair up before they go in the main.

no rays... all of them need at least a 125 gal, and 99% of them need 360 gal and up, plus they are for the experienced... though very interesting fish to watch (would love to have one... but... i figure i will leave it to the big aquariums and just visit every once in a while :P )
