I saw worms spawning

marxsman · 03-09-2005, 05:06 PM

I just witnessed one of the most extreme and cooloest things ever. Not that it was of importance because they were brisstle worms but I have never seen them spawn. At least that is what I thought.

I did not know I had so many worms in my 20 gal long tank.
They came to the live rock and stood on end. there was about fifty worms that were over 5 inches long!

Then you see them swell up and didcharge a pink solution.
Here is a crappy picture because the night lights were on.

Anybody else ever see this?

That's cool!

I have a video of the Great Barrier Reef and it includes a polychaete mass spawning.
