Most of that nasty looking stuff that grows in dark places like that are sponges. As to what type, I would have no idea.

Definately some type of sponge.

I agree.
I think it might be a Diazona violacea, which is a wild growing sponge, filter feeding the water for zooplankton and phytoplankton.

Diazona violacea is a sea squirt.
