Springeri are spitters

Couldn’t figure out how my coarse crushed coral kept ending up on top of rocks and corals and then I witnessed blue springeri damsel repeatedly grabbing in its mouth and spitting it out.

LOL, I have a breeding pair. One of them does this regularly as well as turning around and fanning out the hole with the tail. Gotta keep the house clean. They are very interesting to watch. Don't play well with others as a pair. Almost took out my 5" tang, had to move them.

I keep one in each tank they hold their own but no problem thus far.
