woke up to a tank full of critters

Ok well today I woke up turned my tank lights on and I saw lil specs on the water, after closer inspection i saw that they were swiming.. they are small, white and swim with their heads down. they float in the current and then just move like lil larvae!!

too late to take pictures huh?
well, besides crabs, fish and corals spawn as well. Clams will spawn.

What corals do you have in your tank? any paired fish besides the multiple damsels? It would be interesting if it had be the damselsthat spawned... haha.

do you have more than 1 shrimp?

Shrimp release babies all the time... cleaner and pepps at least... nice coral food and for the fish, but unless you feed rotifiers etc they won't survive. Nice tasty snack for the tank tough. Turn off your skimmer for a few days to make the most of it.
