So this is something I haven't seen before. I just happened to walk by the tank and all of a sudden I see my small 5 head frag releasing a white milky substance. All heads did at the same time and it immediately dissolved in the water column. They're retracted now.

Are they horny or something else?

May be zooxanthellae due to inadequate lighting or spawn
Pics or video under white lighting would help

This was the only picture I was able to take yesterday.

They looked fine again about an hour after and haven't seen them doing it since...
