Have this strange growth coming from one of my Zoa frags. It’s spreading over my rocks. Looks like blue strings or tubes. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180628/911ebaf8968d7b5f9345fe5aab55bd25.heicAny help would be appreciated.

Looks like sponge to me.

Anything to worry about? Let it grow or scrub it off?

Your choice.. Sponges are typically harmless and beneficial...
There are a few cases where the growth has become problematic in that its crowding out corals and taking over.. But thats fairly rare..
IMO leave it and adapt as needed..
