What is my star polyp doing?

Every now and then my starpolyp does this. Is it pooping?!

This is the third or fourth time I've seen it do this in about a year. They are little red balls that are kind of attached together. I never saw this in my other tank so the first time it happened I thought something laid eggs. But now I kind of think it's just releasing waste. Have any of you ever seen this?
 
Do they do that? I thought star polyps just shot out "runners" and kind of took over.
It does look like eggs and at first I thought something else laid eggs in it. But I can't imagine what would lay them, plus the fish don't seem overly interested. i would think if they were eggs of some sort the fish would go crazy eating them.
