Snail spawning?

[toygrr]

I caught this today and thought it was pretty cool, looks like the stomatella snail was spawning this morning. I've found a couple babies since I noticed the snail after buying some frags, so I'm guessing it was gravid at that time. Maybe there's more I didn't notice.

Anyway here it is, kinda fun!

Trochus broadcast like that so it is a possibility. I never saw my Stomatellas breed so no clue if they broadcast or if they lay eggs like Ceriths et al.

Yeah I have t found anything definitive either. My nassarius lay rows of eggs all the time during the night. The stomatella was reaching up off of the rock in a weird wavy fashion, it was pretty interesting. I thought it was stuck to the BTA at first haha
