so over the course of the past month i have noticed a significant increase sponge population growth. I have billions of tiny white pineapple shaped sponges on my rock. in the limited research i have done on sponges, sponges are filter feeders and help clean the water. Is the population explosion a result of poor water quality? (IE they have more food - nitrates? Detrius? in my system so they can proliferate better?)
Should i be cautious about this? or just one of those things that happens with established systems?
I also have had an explosion of little tiny feather dusters (serpulid feather dusters). also harmless? Filter feeders? any way to get rid of them? becoming a bit of an eye sore...
input and 2cents welcome!
