Correction to: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-33294-1, published online 17 October 2018
The original version of this Article contained errors in the Abstract.
“Interestingly, SGRs were slightly slower than that of X. muta, yet growth models supported rapid growth; Indo-Pacific sponges were over twice as old as published estimates of comparably sized X. muta (53–55 as compared to 23 years of age, respectively), although extrapolation errors are likely to increase with sponge size.”
now reads:

These errors have now been corrected in the PDF and HTML versions of the Article.
