Few days ago, I brought 3 feather duster and place them in my 5 gallon nano. They all dong great until this morning I found one of them started excreted white liquids to the waters, and soon after the other ones excreted stringy liquids that seems to consisted of eggs? Soo are they're spawning...
As the title states. $300 Shipped. Fully Quarantined.
I see sites selling extreme coloration juveniles for $180 and this is a spawning pair.
Thank you!
I have other pairs as well I’ll be listing: Black Darwin with an Extreme Frostbite Spawning pair.
Black Storm Pair not spawning yet
Just happened to walk up to our frag tank at the right time, and saw something truly breathtaking... One of our Malaysian acropora speciosas decided to spawn!
Close up video of the spawn:
I've been waiting to see any of my acros do this, and to have it happen on a speciosa... I just HAD...
I have seen this thing in my tanks for months now and know its a cool thing to have, normally I will see it around when the main tank lights are out but today I see it having a "release" lol
So we have had our 25 gallon tank for about 6 months and we think our clownfish may be getting ready to spawn. They are nipping at each other a lot, the male hangs around a small hole in one of my live rocks a little less than half the time I see them. We always found them together but we...
Got a question.. I just happen to catch my stomatella releasing eggs into my tank. I know I only have one that came as a hitchhiker over 6 months ago. Do the eggs need to be fertilized or can they hatch on their own??
Tried to look it up online but no luck so I figured my next best would be to...
So excited!!! And the images are pictures of what the now indentified as male nem was doing before I saw the spawning actually start to happen! I had a feeling when I saw it start to stand up and fold in and out and got my phone out! Sorry for the dirty glass, currently battling Dino's so trying...
It is 3am here. My skunk cleaner shrimp, which has full of eggs since its last molt, just released a bunch of larvae into the tank. They're so tiny and there are so many of them! The fish are all sleeping and nobody has started having a feeding frenzy, but my LPS and softies are enjoying the...

Hi all,
Yesterday, just after 10pm I had a pleasure watching my Mandarins’ mating dance.
After about 40 mins, my mandarins swam together to the top of my tank and spawned. I wasn’t prepared for this occasion, unfortunately my wave makers have broken all the eggs to single pieces, which firstly...
Hello all,
I am wondering at what point Derasa clams become mature enough to spawn? Is it based on a certain length or age? It seems there is limited information online about when a Derasa clam can begin to spawn.
Looking for ID however I’m not concerned and I’m sure they will become food.
Sucked them up with a pipette near sand they are kinda swarming.
My stock,
Pitho crabs,
Reef cleaners cleanup crew variety of snails
Emerald crabs
10 small hermits mixed.
only pair of fish would be blue green chromis...
I'm very new to this so this is very far off for me but to me this is the epitome of coral husbandry so everything leads to it. Its the reason I got into the hobby. From what I know, getting coral to spawn/reproduce instead of fragging is few and far between. Ive only personally read about it...
Hi all! I’ve been watching this torch today because it looked fine in the am then at about 2pm it looked super whimpy and was releasing a clear mucus with white dots in it. The fish were trying to eat it so after doing a brief web search I decided to turn off the pumps etc and stand guard...
I’m not sure how this works but it looks like I have baby somethings all over the place. This was filmed last night. This morning there is no trace of them but I’ll keep you posted if they’re back at night. The only thing they can be is baby crabs as I don’t have 2 of anything else in my...
My trochus snails are spawning and some other forum posts show hundreds of tiny, baby snails, occasionally clogging up some equipment. Is there anything I could do to prevent this from happening? I have some small blue banded hermit crabs but I'm not sure if they can get many of them.
Was chilling in front of the tank this morning and observed some spawn being released. At first I thought it was brittle stars spawning which I’ve seen them do before. When I looked closer I saw a small round critter, with antenna, and these two pink protrusions where the spawn was being...
so as of writing this my maxi mini is spawning. we have gone through a heat wave all of a sudden and the change in ambient temp seemed to start this. i have collected these green balls that i assume are going to become new anemones. question is are they viable? i am moving them to a 2.5g with...
As if bristle worms weren't already prolific enough, today I captured this video of a full-blown bristle worm spawning frenzy. Although the video is undoubtedly a disgusting spectacle, the circumstances under which it happened were quite catastrophic. Over the past month, I have been slowly...
Today saw one my Trochus snails releasing sperm. He kept doing that for 40/60 minutes.
Does this happen together with one or more other snails releasing eggs?
If you have pics or videos of your own snails doing the same, please post it on this thread. ;)

I have a pair of clowns that have been together a little over a year now. I'd say the male is 2 years old and female 3 or 4. They've been behaving very much like pre-spawn for the first time with the male clearing out a spot (picking up sand and moving it) and both clearing out areas and doing...
Well yesterday was catastrophe and this morning maybe the possibility of new life? I said in the video it was a cerith snail but it’s actually a nassarius. Anyway she laid a bunch of eggs on the glass and I’m going to try to protect them and see if I get baby snails. Very exciting!
