Leucosoleniidae is a family of calcareous sponges within the class Calcarea. These sponges are characterized by their calcium carbonate spicules, which provide structural support. They are typically small, simple sponges found in a variety of marine environments, from shallow waters to deeper reefs. Hobbyists appreciate them for their unique appearance and contribution to the biological diversity of a reef aquarium. They are filter feeders and help maintain water quality by consuming bacteria and particulate organic matter.
