    this sponge is underneath a rock, does it need direct light?

    no light needed. I've got sponges growing on the side of rocks and underneath over hangs. They are harmless (if that's your next question)

    Not only are they harmless, they are good because they filter feed, and are a sign your tank is doing well.
