The female is trying to expel something and it’s taking awhile I can’t tell what it is. I just got the pair in the mail. Please help are these eggs? I don’t know how long I should keep the wave maker off for since I have torch corals. If it’s not eggs what could it be since my female is being aggressive towards the male as she expels it.

This is feces with excess mucus likely within stomach lining and often occurs when feeding fatty foods such as mysis shrimp, brine shrimp and will have the effect of internal issues. Simple add pellets and flakes, and even LRS fish frenzy and you will see a change in both color and consistency
