What Are These? Help ID.
These bright green sponge like things started growing a few months ago, I've searched and cannot find anything that looks like them, they all appear to have some kind of snorkel like tube ... take a look at the pics below and if you have any idea what they are please fill me in.
    Thanks in advance. Red

They are sponges, just like you said. Mine seem to come and go and mostly grow in the shaded areas of the tank.

Yep, sponges.
Living water filters. My angels love to eat them. |

Are we sure they are sponges?
With the "siphon" tubes it makes me wonder if the aren't tunicates.
