When I click on your picture, I get a larger one. Not much larger but, large enough for me to see the sponge, some hair algae and a small feather duster. Sponges are filter feeders so I guess that since they filter your water, that would be a benefit to your system. Other than that, they are just cool critters.

I agree that it probably won't last long in the light. It's amazing what you'll find when you turn over the rocks.
