Where to get urchin in South Bay area

Every store I go to know does not carry urchins. I know that most people don't want them because they eat coraline, but they also eat a lot of invasive algae. So I guess most stores don't carry them for this reason. Here are some that never have any:

1.Jeff's Exotic (Gardena)
2.Pacific Reef (Torrance)
3.Aloha (Torrance)
4.Aquatic Fantasy (Redondo Beach)
5.7 Seas (San Pedro)

Anyone have ideas on where to get a tuxedo urchin?

Did you try South bay aquarium (Gardena), It's on Redondo beach and Western, actually 1 block of yoshinoya on Redondo. She had some urchins last time I was there, she had 3 or 4, you can always order if they don't carry it......

Strictly Fish down in Lakewood always has tons of urchins. Pencil urchins, tuxedos, spiny... lots and lots of urchins.
