It is just they they have been little studied in the past because they weren't being collected. But we see them quite frequently, so they are not rare. [15:48:15] Now that we know what to look for we see them all over. [15:50:09] Carnivory in sponges was discovered by serendipity in 1986 [15:50:19] by a couple of french scientists [15:51:09] SORRY!!! [15:51:37] From a recent paper: "Approximately 130 species with a morphology suggesting carnivory have been described to date. Due to the poor sampling of most of the world’s oceans this number probably represents only a portion of the total amount of carnivorous sponges, and new spe- cies are continually being described."

Not sure what the sponge gets out of it, but the zoanthids get a place to live. [16:12:01] Beautiful color. [16:12:06] Covered in zoanthids.
