Hey All!!!
I have what I think is a sponge growing in the tank. Most in shaded areas but I did have a lot growing on, under, and around one of my big leather flower corals. Unfortunately I didn’t get a pic of the thing on the coral but did take a few pics of the stuff on rocks. Help identifying would be much appreciated.
I’ve been told aptasia… it’s not aptasia (spelling). When I removed from the coral it was very sponge like, not hard to remove, and basically disintegrated. Seemed like a sponge. But the pointy tips are throwing me a bit.
