Snail question

[Neoz]

Today I'm watching my tank and noticed that one of my snails is blowing smoke like stuff in the water. Very noticeable. I'm assuming its some kind of spawning? Well about 15 minutes later I notice another snail is moved into the area and now both of them have been blowing smoke or whatever for about 15 minutes so far. In total I have 3 snails all doing this together now. Does this sort of thing promote other snails to do the same?

Weird but very cool looking as I've not seen or noticed this before in my tank...

Yup, they are spawning... pretty cool. I'd recommend a WC shortly.

Water change is coming tomorrow anyway. So thats a good timing. Not sure what kind of snails. I just got them all as part of my cleanup crew. I know I received about 3 or 4 different kinds.

spawn = food for reef animals
