Red Knob Encrusting Sponge

This is for a encrusting Red Knob Sponge, Eudistoma obscuratum. 

Size: ~2.5-4 inches

We find this variety of sponge to be one of the most hardy species to keep in aquariums. This is an encrusting variety. We recommend moderate to higher water flow with sponges. Colors and shapes vary, they are beautiful. These are sure to add bright color to your aquarium! It is best to place them in an area algae will not grow on them with plenty of water flow. 

Sponges are filter feeders, and non photosynthetic. We do not recommend exposing them to air! When you receive sponges from our farm we pack them in water with no air pocket. We recommend opening the bag underwater in your aquarium to release the sponge to avoid air exposure.  

Sponges are safe to keep with our captive bred seahorses.
