It's growing on a piece of live rock. Started small and flat...now it's getting fatter and round? Just wondering if it is safe or if I should get it out of the tank before it hatches/gives birth/opens up to release an alien mutant?????

THANKS for looking
Tim

Sponge? I think I have a few as well. They have never hurt anything. I live and let live most of the time.

If it's not a sponge it might be a tunicate.
