Hi Taz. Sponges aren't corals. But I'm kind of surprised that they took it out of the water when they bagged it up for you. I think I read that 60% of sponges are toxic. I do believe that my blue sponge is toxic as it killed part of my millepora (just the part that was touching the sponge). I don't know how big your tank is but if its fairly big and you have carbon running, it might be OK to leave it in there.
