Acropora spathulata spawning event in Chilliwack

[Aquattro]

Tim, as I recall, Jamie only had a single colony spawn, and no ill effects on the rest of the tank. The event also did not trigger the other corals. He had lots of pics up, but it was 2005/6, maybe earlier, and I don't think the pics are around anymore.
And how does one acquire one of these in purple??

Sorry Tim, my memory is slipping. The thread was actually from Jan/03, and it was a crab releasing larvae, which the acro were catching and eating..

I want to keep them and see if they spawn again next month. I will be prepared this time!!!

I was watching the HD video of the spawning and saw a transparent shrimp in the colony. Didn't even know the shrimp was in the colony until seeing it on the video. LoL

Here is a quick closeup pic of the spawning event. It's a little grainy due to being taken out of the center of the full pic which had the colony and the bottom of the tank visible.



Now to work on the video :^)
