Which? There isn't a shot of motile sperm, so I want to know what looks like that! Thanks!

Oops! I was confused about the magnification and thought that was what was going on in the shot at ~2:10. Is that the larvae swimming?

Gotcha, yep those are Acropora hyacinthus larvae swimming. This species is really small!
