The Sponge Silkie minion can be acquired by playing through the Sil'dihn Subterrane dungeon as a drop. The catch is that there are three versions—a variant, a criterion dungeon, and a savage criterion dungeon. We recommend the variant and criterion dungeon for the best chances and fastest way to get the Spone Silkie minion in Final Fantasy XIV.
