      Serious Question

      I saw something in my tank tonight and had noticed its actions before but couldn't find the culprit.

      It is very small and snail-like but is spitting out what looks like smoke in intervals of 10 or so at a time and then retreats back into its rock.

      Right now it is the size of a large toenail (sorry for the awkward description)

      Any ideas, anyone ever seen this, is this bad?

      What should I do?

      Yeah, what he said. The smoke is sperm and/or eggs. They are spawning.

      nice!

      Is that a sign to good things coming or is this pretty common?

      Sign of tank maintenance, or just what everyone has?
