Urchin ussues

So I read the warnings about pincushion urchins being bulldozers without a real understanding of what that meant until adding my first frags. How do you keep them from pushing them around? We've had a pretty good relationship for a few months but I can't help feel it's intentionally knocking my stuff over at this point.

There is no way to negotiate with urchins. Plus looks like they have preferred frags and rocks, no matter where I put them after taking them off he goes and pick them up again, here is mine carrying a zoa frag hat, plus my GSP rock that is almost his size.

It's what they do. Great camouflage.

I don't think there's much you can really do about it besides anchoring the frags down with glue, or putting them somewhere the urchin physically cannot go.
