Tiger Sponge Actually A Tunicate

I found this article while perusing Glass Box Design:

It says those tiger sponges are actually colonial tunicates and are really hard to take care of. Interesting information. Anyone had any luck keeping theirs alive?

Thanks for the info. Does your Mom do anything special such as feed lots of phytoplankton?

[reynoldscorals]

Just tropic Marin power the zoo and the phyto twice a day. And lots of rotifers

Reef Depot had a couple that were spreading overtheir egg crates a few months back. They were all "just happened"

So, I guess if they are fed enough they do fine. Thanks guys.
