Gems of the Sea

                                         
                                          
Acid-Yellow Sponge
                                                 
                                               
Sponges come in an incredible array of shapes, sizes and colors. They are animals and feed by filtering seawater through their pores. They attach to rock, coral and anything on the bottom that stays still long enough. This is one I think of as beautiful in its gnarly, warty, acid-yellow ugliness!
