Earlobe Sponge (9”-10”) bulk Brown stem corals are comprised

Brown stem corals are comprised of tightly clustered white stems which are brown at the base as the name suggests

hard skeleton that contains many organ-pipe like tubes

where traditional filter feeding is less effective

We absolutely love mixing coral with our vintage industrial decor
