Number one looks like another sponge, delicate vase sponge?

Your Ocellate swimming Crab is eating a Red-ringed Clinging Crab, great shot. The sponge in #1 looks like a Stinker Sponge.

Wow - can't believe you could make it out (couldn't find "Red-ringed Clinging Crab" and believe it is called a Red-ridged Clinging Crab)- I will go back to my original shot and blow it up to look closer.
Thanks for both ID's
I have the Humann books but they don't get into a lot of detail about sponges - does anyone know of a good source for info about IDing them>
