Randomly cleaning out the sump when i saw a little pink thing next to my skimmer. I thought it was a loose tentacle from my nem and I disregard it. Then i lookd in my fuge and found 4 baby nems!!! WTF. My overflow has some mesh in the return so nothing from the dt gets in... so now im wondering if my nems reproduced asexually or sexually. These nems are tinyyyyy. Some smaller than an eraser tip. No clue how long they've been there but they're still colored up. This is awesome!!!

If they're that small, one of your nems is "dropping babies", rather than splitting. That's very cool. They'll probably keep doing that.

dropping babies is a sign of stress... do you have maroon clowns, or angelfish...?

Well it somehow got into the overflow and into the sump, so the lack of light and going through the strainer probably stressed it out haha. The rest of my nems are fine, it was probably just one that caused it
