Snails Blowing Smoke?

Two of the stomatellas in my tank are blowing clouds of somthing into the tank from their mouths. Is this some sort of reproductive behavior? Looks like tiny particles of something or maybe really teensy bubbles.

 

Weird.

LOL. I must have males and females because I've also seen little snails in the tank.

Yes, you need males and females, because each releases their own respective gametes. They're not hermaphroditic like many other molluscs.
