I see a lot of tree sponges on online vendors sites and they sure do look pretty. I have read wetmedia's threads about sponges and it seems they recommend they be left in the sea.
I've seen quite a few photographs of tanks with tree sponges in them so I thought I'd post to ask those who've owned them if they were successful with them, what requirements these animals have etc., how long you've owned it etc.
From what I have gleamed so far: Sponges like high flow, need to be fed alot of plankton type subtances, are filter feeders, can be very toxic, don't expose to air, mostly not photosynthetic.
TIA
