The #GiantBarrelSponge filters tons of water on the #Reef and provides #Habitat for other species. A 3-spot damselfish (center) & several small bluehead wrasse (striped fish) seem to be occupying this one, while keeping a wary eye on the photographer. #MarineSponge
Fascinated by animals having life expectancy of 140+ years. Who would’ve thought the top contender is the Immortal Jellyfish!

Giant barrel #sponges are #filterfeeders and pump seawater through their bodies to extract floating nutrients. In a single day, a #giantbarrelsponge may #filter over a thousand gallons of water! #ANGARIDeepDive
Scientists refer to the #GiantBarrelSponge as the “#redwood of the reef” because of its incredible life span -- the oldest ever recorded lived for 2300 years! The sponge in this photo is likely much younger, but could be up to a hundred years old. #ANGARIDeepDive
