i cant make out from the pic but it looks like a white color sponge growing along side the chaeto. it cant be copepods as they are only 1-2 millimeters in size.

It's hard to say from the pic. Can you get another pic? It might be sponge like bnumair said.

better pic.

I think this is the best pic I can get. I moved it and when I picked it up it was stuck to the bottom of my sump.
