Looking for a frag of this specific sponge. I have a big colony of the blue/purple variety but just lost my small piece of red due to an alk swing. Looking for another.
Thanks

Interesting. I didn't know there was a red one. I have the purple/blue one.

Yeah, I recently heard about it and saw one in a shop I was near at the time surprisingly not long after, but haven't seen one since then.

It's seriously the same sponge in all aspects except for color. Just a red Collispongia Auris. The blue kind is very pretty with its varying colors, and the dark red this one can get is really really nice, imo.

Getting in touch with the shop I got it from hasn't been fruitful. I went ahead and took a chance with ordering one from LiveAquaria. Fingers crossed it gets here intact, as I really want one and I sell a lot and a lot of people were wanting frags. If you ever want a piece when it's grown out, I can give you one for much cheaper than what LiveAquaria offers, and with much more consideration probably lol.
 
Lights are still off, but my red plating sponge is probably 24”x18”… frags growing in 3 of my other tanks
