So i have a few new heads coming out of my acan frag, but the frag is also littered with feather dusters. Will this bother the new heads from growing? The feather dusters have been multiplying like crazy on this frag and in my tank. Should i crush the ones on the frag or just leave them be? Also not sure how my post got tagged with "emergency" and now i don't know how to change it lol

If they are in a space where you'd rather the acan be growing, I'd scrape them off. Acans can be crazy aggressive though and if there is something around they don't like you can be sure they will nuke it.

If you're not going to miss the dusters, I'd just take care of them myself and not worry about it.

I wouldn't even bother scraping anything off. Those feather dusters won't bother the acan at all
