Common name: Haplosclerida sponges

Haplosclerida is an order of marine sponges commonly found in reef aquariums. These sponges are known for their intricate network of channels and pores which facilitate water flow, aiding in filtration. They come in various shapes and colors, adding both aesthetic value and biological filtration to the tank. Haplosclerida sponges are generally hardy and can thrive in a range of conditions, but they do require stable water quality and moderate flow. They are non-aggressive and can coexist with most tank inhabitants.
