My PinCushin Urchins Releasing Eggs

[AKL1950]

These guys have been doing this for hours. One will release a bunch, then the other will. Each time, maybe 20-30 eggs each. I would say between them, they probably dumped a few hundred eggs in the tank. Can’t tell if or how the fertilization happens, but they for sure are doing it as a pair. Took me a while to catch them at the right moment.

Neat! Maybe you'll end up with a bumber crop of tiny little urchins!

Lol! Could be all country music. They were listening to it for hours.
