Is it releasing eggs??

Cant sleep and was just looking at my nightstand pico tank. I have quite a few of these little chitons (I think?) in my tank. As I'm watching my tank just now I see one releasing what looks like eggs. Anyone know more on whats happening here? Are they fertalized you think? I'm curious what their breeding info is like. So far I'd say about 20 or so eggs/tiny white spheres have been released.

Chitons, which I think you have, usually reproduce sexually with both males and females releasing into the water column. Lets hope you get baby ones.
