Orange slime ? Sponge ?

[Zazvor92]

Not sure what this is growing on my GSP colony. It’s spreading down into the sand. After some research I think maybe a sponge ? Tank is new. Only 2 months old so could be cyano ? It started from the frag and moved down.
Thanks for the help.

I don't know. Is the gsp opening?

It could be a sign (lol)

Yea the GSP is totally fine. This pic was taken after lights out to better see the orange.

That makes me lean more toward a sponge, but it's not one I have seen or recognize. Generally I would say it's a great score if it is a sponge, they are great for diversity and fitration and expulsion of life into the aquarium.

I think it looks cool where it is I just don’t want it to spread all over the place. Or if it was toxic I’d want to get rid of it as well.
