does any part of it move

Think it could be a star tunicate.

thanks - not apparently motile - has a distinctive green jagged pattern on an otherwise all black background

Tunicate seems more like it than sponge on close examination

tunicates always have the holes in pairs, I cant quite see any holes in the picture so youll have to check it. sponge or tunicate are for the most part harmless

In fact there is a siphon tube at the leading end - with y‘all’s input and further reading and image scrolls I think it’s a tunicate and a nice new addition

It’s a colonial tunicate/sea squirt and capable of growing quickly depending on genus(pic a little dark) especially if Botrylloides genus
