Glass sponges generally live at water depths ranging from 1480 to 3000 ft. (450 to 900 meters).

However, there is one species of glass sponge Oopsacas Minuta which has been found at much shallower depths, and there have been other glass sponge species which have been found at much deeper depths.

Modern sponges are predominantly marine, with some 150 species adapted to freshwater environments. Their habitats range from the inter-tidal zone to depths of 6,000 metres (19,680 feet). Certain types of sponges are limited in the range of depths at which they are found. Sponges are worldwide in their distribution, and range from waters of the polar regions to the tropical regions. Sponges are most abundant in both numbers of individuals and species in warmer waters.For the source and more detailed information concerning this subject, click on the related links section (Answers.com) indicated below.


What is the chemical component of glass sponges?

The primary chemical component of glass sponges is silica, which is primarily in the form of silicon dioxide (SiO2). This silica forms intricate skeletal structures, giving glass sponges their characteristic glass-like appearance. Additionally, their skeletons may contain organic materials and spongin, but silica is the predominant structural element.
