Lta Spawning!

[Kristopher Conlin]

I noticed my LTA was much more extended then usual all day today. In the evening I noticed the whole tank was quite cloudy and one of my hammers was half retracted. At first I feard something was overdosed or fell into the tank. But once I watched for a minute I noticed my LTA was shooting intermittent clouds from its mouth. After some quick googling it is identical to other anemone spawning events in appearance. This continued for a few hours until the whole tank is opaque. None of the corals seem to mind too much. And the hammer has puffed up again.

Should I do some water changes or run fresh carbon? Or is this harmless.

Massive water change and put felt socks in sump. Eggs will start to decompose

It won't let up upload the video I took for some reason but here is a still from it showing the anemone spawning.

Are you concerned you're going to have a tank full of baby nems?
Should be good for the corals; they'll eat a lot of it.

This tank has a lot of hungry Ricordea so I'm sure they are getting a nice snack.

Thanks! I swapped the felt socks. I will have to get some water made. Unfortunately I just did my water changes for the week and polished off the last of my brute can.
