From my unserstanding all tanks are pelagic broadcast spawners, meaning they are releasing their eggs and gameetes into the water column.

The male will chase the female (in the wild many males to one female) and she will suddenly shoot upwards with enough force to propell the eggs from her stomache!

This means that for successful spawnage, you would need a realy tall tank.

Those look like collonial tunicates to me, but could be a number of things.
