Something grew in my chaetoalgae...

In my refugium, I keep a clump of chaetoalgae in the hopes that it will grow. It has been about 2 months, and now I notice an entire network of "branches" within it. I think these are feather dusters. I don't know how they grew so fast within two months, I only had around 1 feather duster inside with that chaeto when I first got it. Should I remove them, or leave them be?

Sure would be nice if the mod (misled or others) would unlock (unjail.. or whatever its called) that post at the same time you respond to it so the rest of us can see/benefit from it.. This has been happening quite often lately..
All us peons see is the single post by Misled and not the original..
