Urchin Spewing White Stuff

[Countryreefer]

I just walked by my tank and noticed that it was really cloudy. Found my urchin spewing this white stringy stuff out of the top of it. Is it spawning? If so, will this cause any issues to other tank inhabitants?

yes, spawning; no worries won't harm anything

Thanks. I figured that is what it was but I never seen my tank so cloudy especially since I have 2 tanks tied to my sump and the other one was clear.

Everyone in the tank will have a buffet of urchin eggs, good stuff.
Also it is a good sign that your tank is doing great.

My Longspine sea urchin that I’ve had for about five years does the exact same thing all the time you’re fine
