Just looked at my tank and it was super cloudy...

Then I realised why...



Corals are loving it!

Wonder if I'll get many this time, last time I 'raised' over 250 for my lfs!
 
I have baby trochus snails in my tank, so my adults must have spawned. I have never experienced it milking up my tank though. I have seen the eggs, perhaps this is how those eggs get fertilized. Very cool.

I didn't manage to catch the eggs on video, but some of the snails were also releasing eggs :)
