FishOnTheBrainCoral Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I threw this in CLAMS cause if I had to guess it's where it's coming from. Last night I threw in a dose of vitamin C for an ailing Kole Tang. I normally only put it in my prop tank. Left for a min come back and there were THOUSANDS of little tiny tiny tiny .25-.5mm grey almost fuzzy dots floating all over tank. My fish were devouring them as fast as possible they couldn't have got them all but I'm not sure what put them out.. clam? My critters are as follows. Fish 1 kole tang 3 blue / green chromis 1 ruby red dragonet CUC 10 or so blue leg hermit crabs 100+ mini cerith snails 15+ Florida cerith 5 asteria snails 20 Nassarius 20 Nerite Plus regular hitch hiking critters Coral Various zoanthids Candy cane Frog spawn Torch Acans 1 Maxima clam Maxi anemone acro's Monti's why it's here is thinking that it was clam. Anything else broadcast spawn like this? What are chances of having Babies poping up later? I know some made it to refugium.. i pulled my sock off ASAP and witnessed a bunch in there. Sorry a little excited.. never witnessed anything like this in my tanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishOnTheBrainCoral Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 Anyone had a similar instance and was able to see where it was coming from? Who might be capable in my list of critters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reefnjunkie Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Maybe Sylaster might chime in, he was spawning clams somehow if I recall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishOnTheBrainCoral Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 Snails I was wondering.. a Hitchhicker snail maybe... they seemed a bit big for any of them that I I know don't leave eggs attached to glass like the ceriths Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishOnTheBrainCoral Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 These are not my pics.. however looking online at this looks to be similar to what I was seeing in my tank.. that being the case. It would lead me to believe it to be my SPS.. however they are quite small pieces. Wouldn't think they would nearly be big enough to to such a thing. We're talking like 2" frags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishOnTheBrainCoral Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 So. I was looking around on the Web and found pics and articles on torches doing this. Usually in kind of a slimy goo however. The day before I took out a large..20+ head colony of torch and a 40+ head colony of frogspawn. Leaving 2 heads of torch and 1 frogspawn. Maybe? Here is a pic from the web. Similar looking eggs. But not bound together with any mucus. What you all think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
