Common name: Spongiidae

Spongiidae, commonly known as commercial sponges, are a family of marine sponges found in shallow waters around the world. They are known for their porous bodies and ability to filter large volumes of water. Spongiidae are important for the reef aquarium as they contribute to water cleanliness by removing detritus and bacteria. They require moderate lighting and a steady flow of water to thrive. Spongiidae can also serve as a natural food source for certain species of fish and invertebrates that graze on sponges.
