Lynn I think SFLA_PB id'ed it with his post in your other thread

<blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr> I believe it is called a Urn Sponge (SYCON). Comes in on the live rock and lives in shady areas. It is very common and you will have quite a few as your tank ages. I am not any expert just what I think it is. It can be small or large,I haven't seen larger than quarter in my tank, and can be fuzzy unlike this pic.
ps: right click your pic on your web site, click properties and highlight address and copy. Then click image below your post and paste it.
This tiny, vase-shaped calcareous sponge belongs to the genus Sycon.

I've got tons of these guys but the population dropped when we started dosing Calcium.

Nothing will eat them. Consider them tiny canister filters for your reef. If you really dont want them remove the ones you can see. You can never get them all. I actually have them between the rocks and sand in my tank. All part the cool little things that make this hobby great.
