I don't harvest from my Pocillopora mother colony when I create new frags. I chip them off of the rocks... Has anyone ever observed the actual spawning event? I've read that they're self fertilizing but it would be pretty cool to watch when the colony releases. The closest I've come to seeing a coral spawn was when my anemone did it for a few nights in the spring of 2009.

So far I've just left these ones alone. They magically began to grow on my return plumbing at the top of the tank.
