I collected about a half a pound of local New York sponge today on the south shore of Long Island. It looks kind of ratty because it grows on pilings and I have to kind of scrape it off. It is thin like leather and orange. My Idol goes nuts over it and I give it to him every day with other things. All the fish like it but I only feed it to him. I don't really want to collect this stuff all the time. It does not live in a reef tank so I freeze it.
