Scientific name: Tedaniidae

Tedaniidae is a family of sponges found in marine environments. These sponges are known for their diverse forms and can range from encrusting to branching types. They often display a variety of colors, adding aesthetic value to reef aquariums. Hobbyists appreciate them for their natural filtration capabilities, as they feed on particulate matter in the water. Care should be taken to provide them with adequate water flow and to avoid placing them in direct, strong light, as they typically inhabit lower light environments in the wild.
