    Sponges

    In the past I've tried to keep those really colourfull bright blue sponges a couple of times. First when my tank was Berlin only, and a second time when it was on the ZEO-method. I figured I would have more luck with Korallenzucht's "Sponge Power". I had it a bit longer the second time, but still couldn't keep it.

    Now that my tank has a scrubber... Should I try again?

    Does anybody have any experience with keep the blue sponges on a scrubber-based system?

    I'm personally having a spreading of bright yellow sponge; it does not like much light. Blue is probably going to need more light.

    Sponge is almost a plague in my ATS tank...
    Every low light space, like between the rocks, is taken by white sponge.. some `tunnels´ I´ve build in the scape are completly filled by sponge. even in the sump are massive white sponge structures all the way to the water level..
