Sponge?
Hi, I am moving all my LR over to a new tank and found this piece at the very back. I hadn't noticed it before, but is this just a normal sponge growth? It seems very big

That type of sponge is very common but only grows underneath rocks in darker places.Excellent for using nitrates and phosphates in your tankwater.If you've turned the rock it will die exposed to light.
Like the little boxfish,very cute. |

Thanks Nembo, I will make sure its turned back round once it goes in the new tank. The Boxfish is class, need to get him moved over as soon as poosible as he keeps getting trapped on the internal skimmer
