    OH you meant the thing in your tank..... :)
    That's an ugly looking thing, But it does look like a bivalve of some sort But I've been looking for 1/2 an hour and I have to clean Birdy cage now. Sorry I'll look some more tomorrow

    Oh yeah, it's is funky looking to be sure! Bivalve eh? That includes clams right? Are sponges in that family? Don't go crazy looking....cause I have ...... :p
    I was just wondering, that's all! It obviously needs no special care because it is growing without any!
