Sponge ok to have?

I just noticed these sponge like things pop out and didn’t think anything of it, but since I’m having dwarf seahorses/very sensitive fish in this tank idk if I should keep or get rid of them

theyre white tentacles

They're good filter feeders, harmless, but can overrun your tank if you let them

That type of sponge i believe grows in low lighted areas. Need to get rid of that Aiptasia…
