Cool Green Sponge

[CarmieJo]

This cool green sponge has just shown up in my tank. Nothing new has been added and this face of the rock has been visible for months. I have lots of brown sponges but this is the first green one I have seen.

Nice Sponge Carmie.I've noticed some yellow growth on my live rock,and they appear to be sea squirts. Got any of those?

[tim]

very cool I only have the yellow ones. they come and go in my reef tank all the time

[CarmieJo]

No, no sea squirts. The pineapple sponges come and go but my brown ones have been stable the whole time I've had my tank.

[veriann]

whats the age of your bulbs, or is this the intro effect to your new LED system?

[CarmieJo]

This is with my new Solaris. The form of the sponge looks like the brown ones so I guess it could be a morph.

Ok,My new camera is not what I'd hoped...Pixel this and Mega that,but here's a shot of what I think are Sea Squirts.Any observations pro or con to my take on this organism always appreciated.



And couldn't help to take a pic of one of my buddies bouncin' around while I was photogin',this guy has my Tangs lining up like at a car wash!




Tank-raised, and comes highly recommended, if you can find one.I snagged this goby the second I saw him.

Here are a few from my tank that cropped up recently. I love the fact that things just pop up in this hobby, some good things and some bad.

those are some cool looking colors

I am fighting an outbreak of HA but all of the sudden I also have Neomeris annulta. Now where did that come from?

Larry,

That organism looks just like my yellow/green sponge I have in my tank. A closer shot of them would help determine if they are sponges or sea squirts, but I would guess sponge.
