White hair algae in my reef?? How do I get rid of it?

[janky]

Hey everybody...
I've noticed some white stringy, webby "algae" or something on some of my live rock and corals. It seems to be pretty fond of my mushrooms -- in fact, the edges of them are stuck together by this stuff, causing them to fold in instead of being all luxurious and spread out.

What is this stuff? It looks like white hair algae, spider webs, or white slime trail or something!
I've googled it a bunch and can't find any info.

I've been blasting it with the dropper I use to spot feed, trying to suck it up or spray it off the shrooms..

How do I get rid of this?

Hard to tell through all of the blue, but I'd assume that it isn't algae at all. It is probably the webbing from tube worms...I want to say scorpid but that isn't right. I have them in my tank, as do many people. They are harmless filter feeders.

hmm.. ok.
Another person said they may be snail eggs or something?
I guess it's just aesthetic really, outside of sticking the shrooms together they don't seem to be really harmful or anything - just annoying.

No, not snail eggs. They are pretty obvious and oval shaped.
