I rearranged half of my tank this evening and was looking to ensure all the critters were okay when I noticed a puff of smoke. Then another, and another.

Went on for 20 minutes....

Apparently my moving the rock around triggered a spawning event. Yep, all the bristle worms in my tank were standing straight up out of their rock and spawning. The fish loved it. I grabbed my cell and tried to video it, but the quality is pretty poor since the phone doesn't macro focus.

If something is going to spawn in my tank, bristle worms wouldn't be my first choice...but it was interesting to watch!
 
Stomatella snails do the same, it's very interesting to watch. I love my tanks, something new going on all the time.:DHolley
 
This is funny. Yesterday while I was doing a water change, I noticed a few of my turbos doing this same thing. Must be the season.
