Hi Bill,
Thank you for that infomation, I find it very interesting. But just for your infomation, my Husband and I were diving on our own and came across these two on this sponge. As far as I can say they were on this sponge naturally.
Best regards
Ann

Dear Ann,
Thanks for getting back to me. We will have to keep our eyes open for further sightings of this species on red sponges. I guess I should say that if you do find animals seemingly 'at home' like this it is worth just checking to see if their 'mouths' are in action. If necessary a gentle nudge to try and move the head end should give you an idea if they are feeding or not.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
