What is it???

I'm doing my water change/Christmas cleaning of the tank as I have friends and family coming over all weekend starting tomorrow. I come across this white stuff in the overflow? It's nowhere else in my tank and I'm afraid to disturb it as I don't want tit anywhere else in my tank. Ideas what it may be? There is a small layer of sand there also but this is forming on top of it.

Unless a better picture proves otherwise, I'm going to go with sponge as well.
 
Could also just be carbonate buildup like many people get on their overflows and pumps. That's what white "dots" typically are. I have this on most of my tanks in the overflow sections.

Better pic is needed to know however.
