An attractive red colored sponge that grows vertically. This species is highly variable in branching. We typically collect smaller specimens as they seem to do better in the aquarium. All sponges are filter feeders and should only be placed in established aquariums with plenty of live food available. Do not expose directly
Thanks Patrick, my tang is a bristletooth so I have not seen it pick at any of my sponges. It does pick the detritus off the codium and caulerpa cupresoides which is a good thing. The coral beauty also picks at things although I am not sure what she is targeting; algae or detritus. Probably bits of algae. The only other fish earning their keep are the 2 neon cleaner gobies. I saw one of them attempting to clean the tomini but Tommy was having none of it. LOL
