Urchin Poop

[Fasthackem]

For lack of a better term..........

My Halloween Urchin occasionally "Has to go"

He climbs up to the top of the highest rock, parks himself in the heaviest flow out of a return nozzle, and lets one go.
What's got me so confused is I keep hearing the word "Pellet" when describing the output. My urchin has to put out at least 3cc of what looks like white snow, not pellets.

Ideas if this is actually poop?

Thx in advance.

Mine does the exact same thing. Always seems to do it when The waters at its cleanest or I settle down on the couch to watch the tank.

Exactly.
I just did a WC this morning.

I have seen my urchin do this a few times and always tell others I have never seen pellets from the urchin

Your urchins are broadcasting gametes, not "pooping".

Well, that was my second guess.
He/She is looking to party.

Thanks, LFS.

NP. If we all pooped like that the world would be a pretty gross place.
