Coming from scuba, some of my favorite underwater structure happens to be the species of sponges that are native to the Caribbean. Sure, they might not be corals, but purple stove pipe sponges, and the big vase sponges in purple orange and yellow, offer fantastic contrast to a reef and make for cool hiding spots for small fish and inverts.
There are a number of species I like where after doing some research I’ve found ample cases of people having tried to keep them and failing miserably. With that being said, I cannot find any evidence that these sponges have proved too difficult for aquarists in past attempts.
Am I missing something? Why can’t I find any evidence of people attempting to keep them? They’re super cool!
