Strange creature releasing gametes????

Well I'm not really sure it's gametes, but that's my best guess. I hope it's nothing else. The tube was about 2.5" long. It went on for approx 8-10 mins. Long enough to cloud the tank, a 260 and long enough to get a few shots off.
Please no laughing at my majano anemone. They're getting the needle today.

Oldsaint, this hobby amazes me. I wonder what it is.

How long have you had that paritcular piece of live rock?

Neat. THat's probably what it is, whatever it is. I'd be tempted to comment you may wake up to a lot of baby rocks, but that would be unhelpful. Honestly, there are boring clams, for my prime guess.

Yes guntercb it amazes me everyday.
All the rock was bought from John Sept 2004, so almost 2 years.

I had someone on another site say it might be a peanut worm, but I've never seen a peanut worm. I guess it's near impossible to tell exactly by just the tube.
Most everyone I've talked to has confirmed it is reef porn. I should have video taped it and set it to music
