donna68 Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 hello, I received a zoo frag on friday and noticed this among the zoo's was wondering if anybody knew what it is. I thought maybe it might be some sort of sponge. It has a mouth that opens and closes and it's body deflates in then comes back out...here are a few pic's..I circled the critter in question. Thanks for your help in advance. Donna Link to comment
wolfpac Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 Probably some type of sponge by the looks of it. Or some of skeleton of the zoo colony. Link to comment
