   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray's_Reef_National_Marine...

   The reef's rocky sandstone outcrops, submerged beneath 60 to 70 feet (18 to 21 m) of water, can be as tall as 2 to 3 metres (6 ft 7 in to 9 ft 10 in) and are highly complex. [2] These nooks and crannies provide plenty of places for marine invertebrates to latch on to and for fish to hide in. Together these animals form a dense tapestry of ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaculture_of_sea_sponges

   More than 8000 species of sea sponges live in oceanic and freshwater habitats. [1] Sponge fishing historically has been an important and lucrative industry, with yearly catches from years 1913 to 1938 regularly exceeding 181 tonnes and generating over 1 million U.S. dollars. However, this demand for sea sponges has seen catch rates peak and in ...

4. Archaeocyatha - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archaeocyatha

   Flow tank experiments suggest that archaeocyathan morphology allowed them to exploit flow gradients, either by passively pumping water through the skeleton, or, as in present-day, extant sponges, by drawing water through the pores, removing nutrients, and expelling spent water and wastes through the pores into the central space.

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sponge_reef

   Each living sponge on the surface of the reef can be over 1.5 m tall. The reefs are composed of mounds called "bioherms" that are up to 21 m high, and sheets called "biostromes" that are 2–10 m thick and may be many kilometers wide. [5] Each sponge in the order Hexactinosa has a rigid skeleton that persists after the death of the animal.

6. Giant barrel sponge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_barrel_sponge

   The giant barrel sponge has been called the "redwood of the reef" [4] because of its large size and its long lifespan, which can be more than 2,000 years. [5] It is, perhaps, the best-studied species of sponge in the sea; a population on Conch Reef, in the Florida Keys, has been monitored and studied since 1997. [6]

8. Sponge diving - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sponge_diving

   When the Greek sponge divers started using surface supplied standard diving suits (locally called scaphandro) in 1865 the death and injury rate from decompression sickness was extremely high as the procedures for safe decompression were as yet unknown. Some estimates put the death toll at around 10,000 Mediterranean divers in the first 50 years ...
