ROW PORE ROPE SPONGE'S
The Row Pore Rope Sponge is a very non-distinctive sponge found along the ocean floor, deep sloping reefs, and lagoons. They are found primarily off the coast of Florida, and stretch all the way to Curacao, which is an island in the Caribbean Sea. These sponges are long, rope-like and have branching “arms” which can reach lengths up to 60 cm. This sponge is very closely related to the tube sponge because it's skeleton is composed of tiny needle- like splinters called spicules. The major difference it that it grows in ropy like branches.
