Coral spewing eggs or sperm

Tonite I was feeding my tank late with the actinics on and I look over and saw that the entire right half of the tank was cloudy, after the cloud dissipated there were hundreds of what looked like tiny eggs covering the entire tank. Then, I looked at the bottom of the tank and saw my other scolymia was contorted and blown up at the same time, not like when it's feeding time but even more. My mandarins were going nuts, they wanted some of what was going on. Ever since I bought my new Tunze system of pumps & controller my tank has been taking on a dramatic change, my clown (whom I've had for nine years) has never laid eggs now lays them once a month, and this evening this with the corals It has to be the Tunzes wave motion and the photo cell with moon lights. What do you think?

Yes, they might've gotten motion sickness from all that flow
