Could I keep a Spiny Blue lobster with some kind of trigger or puffer? If the lobster is getting close to 12" long, will puffers or triggers of the same size be able to attack it?
 
Probably not if they are the same size, and the spiny lobsters can be quite beastly. It would be a risk though, as an aggressive puffer or trigger doesn't always let size be a factor... I would also make sure to feed the lobster well, as he will grab any fish if he can,e specially one that big.
ALso watch out for them, as they can dig a lot and knock everything over, especially one that massive...
Thinking about growing him out for a dinner? :evil_lol::headbang2::eek3:
 
i had a spiny with a huma trigger it's do'able i did it for like 8 months, but have lots of live rock or rock in your tank. it's pretty sweet when they get spooked the jet backwards
