They don't nessessarily breath, yet they do respire. They must have oxygen because they are living animals, so every cell in the sponge takes in oxygen and puts out carbon dioxide.

Sponges get oxygen by taking water through it's pores. The water moves over cells inside the sponge and oxygen in the water moves into the sponge's cells.
