I have never seen, heard of, or know of a blue sponge in this hobby. This is probably why you have not gotten a reply  :)

I have heard of an orange one but I have never heard of someone actually being able to keep one alive without a really complex dosing system to give it special food.

The first time I saw one (it was only a piece) was at Aquariums Ect. Joel wasn't there and the person who was didn't know how much to sell it for. The following week when I called to ask Joel about it he told me the retail side was now shut down (bad timing on my part).

Joel...If you see this .... WE MISS YOU !!! lol ....it was great to have you within walking distance :)

I actually have been growing or "fragging" a specie of blue sponge for a while now. I think I have a few small pieces attached to rubble but have no larger pieces.

I was selling close to dime size pieces for 10 bucks, pm me if interested.

I just wanted to take a moment to thank Joel of Aquariums Ect. for setting me up with my new Blue Sponge frag !

I was expecting to pick up a few eraser sized frags and I stopped by the shop and he set me up with a much larger piece.

SO..THANKS again Joel !   :notworthy   ..... You should wear a cape or something  ;D
