Ok these have appeared only in my overflow box so far, but they appear to be multiplying and growing in size.
There was one now there are 5 largest is the size of a nickel and increasing.
Need to know what it is and what to do about it. They look soft like a leather or something.
It is not a living animal. They do not move around. It is not a flat worm or a sponge.
Thanks.

I just want to make sure I don't spread it if it's some crazy bad invasive thing. It's deff growing though.

It's a sponge. Especially evident by the first picture with it's pourous composition. I'd say the beginnings of Liver Sponges.

Yea, now it looks like a Sponge. I've had those before.
