It was amazing to watch. I have seen them do it many times before but never with a happy ending :wink:

hopefully I can get a video tonight !!!!!!!!

I've personally had a green wolf eel blenny lay eggs, a tomato clown fish deposit eggs, my sebae anemone release eggs, a turbo snail release sperm, a tiger tail cucumber divided, a green bubble tip anemone split twice, a pocillopora sp. spawned... and my stomatella snails are always going at it. The only times I've ever had anything develop was with the stomatella snails and pocillopora (which must be self fertilizing).

Sebae Anemone that released eggs? I thought all nems split!

Delphinus 03-02-2009 05:05 PM

I'd say most don't split, actually..

Spawn Videos
 
I finally was able to film my dragonets spawning 2 weeks after I first witnessed them do it :wink: I filmed the videos on my Cannon G9 in high resolution mode under actinics. P.S. turn your volume down videos are kinda loud.

Video #1 Foreplay

Video #2 The big show ! but its hard to see the eggs(aprox.100) & sperm in the water.
