Over the years I have had the good fortune to witness various species spawn.
This evening, around 5:00, I saw one of my urchins releasing gametes into the water column.
I was wondering if anyone else has seen any at this time?
Is the cause related to the lunar cycle or perhaps by water chemistry?
 
My former longed spine urchins released white stuff at 1615 in October. They made the water column cloudy. These ones munched on my corals.

last weekend I had something in the tank getting frisky, I assume. I caught the milky water and skimmer bubbling over but did not see who or what it came from. usually a couple of times a year but I never seem to catch it while it is happening and haven't a clue who the culprit is.
 
I have witnessed “globe” aka “royal” urchins, brittle stars, coco worms, and trochus snails over the years.
I’ll be sure to post during the next event

I plead technologically challenged or I would post videos
