Weird fuzzy white polyps on torch coral?

Noticed these weird growing polyp fuzzy like white things on my torch skeleton over the past couple of weeks. Any thoughts on what they are?

If they over take or try to with corals, inject with vinegar or air which will make them shrink

Definitely looks like pineapple sponges.

What’s the flow like on the torch?

Sponges shouldn’t be able to grow so high up on a healthy torch like that, especially at a flow rate where a sponge might grow.
