LTA spitting out some white liquid from its mouth

[pitogo]

What does it mean when an LTA is spitting some white liquid from its mouth? Been in my tank for a few days, it looks pretty healthy and colored. I fed it a small piece of shrimp two days a go and I plan to feed it once every other week and daily with a good dose of 10w/gal. Is that a bad sign our should I not feed it?

Could be spawning? That's the only thing I've read that is white.

Females actually release eggs.

oh cool thanks!

oh cool thanks!

Thats exactly what it looked like. I thought it was having a bad day. The mouth was protruded as shown with that white milky liquid coming out. I have the skimmer on and hope it picks up all that gunk.

Thanks for the advise, I was thinking about doing a 5 gallon change, now I may just go ahead and do the 10.

Missenterial filaments.. Your anemoen is stressin' Is it a new addition? If so defintely light shock might be a factor. Anemones to my knowledge do not reproduce like that.
