Photos, a description of what you've added to the tank, light schedule, and current parameters will be helpful.
At only 1 month in, I'd be surprised if it was a sponge... Unless maybe you started with ocean live rock...?
How old is the actual aquarium (are you the first owner? If not, was is recently resealed?)
