    Everything has waste. Eric Bornman's Coral book has some really good diagrams about coral anatomy. A lot of corals poop where there mouth is or right next to their mouth.

    Talking about putting the sh***ers next to the snack shack!

    Actually I bet it was spawning. I dont know why, but there has been alot of reports of that the last couple of weeks.

    There is a video on youtube showing one spawning, I will see if I can find a link.
