Worst.

Denny (Reefwars) shut down his whole system and did a redo because of these nasty little things.

My vote is buy $50 work of epoxy and smother EVERYTHING, after a couple of days take it off and you should be okay.

That looks more like a feather duster to me, I have a few of those in my tank that don't seem to bother anything.

Hard to tell what that is in that picture.
If it's just 1 and you're not sure what it is, break out the superglue and smother the thing, then cover the area and the super glue in epoxy.
These were mine
