[Dr. Dendrostein]

This came with my scleronephthya.
Looks like a wool ball of yarn , has a big & small mouth. The mouths can close slowly and open as they please.

Many thanks

I maybe wrong, but it looks like an sponge.

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

But, do sponge close their mouths?

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

Other words move

From just reading on the web, I'd say no.

Actually with this setup you will probably be able to keep it alive.

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

From what I've read the problem is that they are nps, so most people don't keep them alive long term. You however have a good chance.

 

[Dr. Dendrostein]

We'll see, with time.
