    So I read about it on other forums but it seems like nobody on here has had it happen.

    My Maxi's are spawning my my 6g tonight, how do the eggs hatch? Anybody know the process?

    There's eggs and sperm everywhere...

    it happened to me last month - it was crazy - made the tank milky white. No new mini-maxi's - I don't think if only one does will it create new ones.

    most the time the eggs dont end up hatching to anemones, your best just doing a water change and trying to get as many out as possible.
