Ok, I take it that's a regular sized tub & those corals are just really big?!?!! I used to have a fish tank w/ those kinds of decorations (corals) in it - I think I still have some of the sea dollars.
Great shot, Jacob. I love natural sponges. We went to Santorini a few years ago and the price of the sponge is based on the amount of water it soaks up. The more water, the higher the price.
LOL, I thought you went crazy on Black Friday and got them as a deal :))). Are they grown or wild? In Croatia picking real sponges out of the sea is forbidden (ecology thing).

Cool tub! Oh, and I couldn't figure out what to "click", so I embiggened it. Hope you don't mind.
See this picture I can't wait to go to Cedar Key again.

Sponges from the sea--nice.
Love the tub too. MB
Nice display, I'll have two small ones please. Everything is small in Europe, so I can't get a big one!
All that's missing is some water and a rubber duckie.
The tub looks small...or are the sponges really big?
@ EG - The tub may be a bit smaller than usual, but most of the sponges are quite large.
@ Brattcat - Safe Leif from Eagan stole the rubber duckie! Made me really, really mad, too! ;-)
Are you going to take a sponge bath, Jacob?
In a way it is sad they are killed for public display and possible use. I think they were alive once upon a time. Maybe I am wrong.

You better buy up all these natural sponges for bath time, great-grandpa!!

@ Mirela - These are real. I remember some years back while visiting Cedar Key, boats would come in loaded with sponges.
I don't know if harvesting wild sponges is illegal here or not.
I surely would get some fantastic items for my collection there!
