Seaweed?

Banana Man

Reefing newb
So i am 5-6 weeks in now and have 3 hermit crabs and 3 snails on cleanup duty. I have noticed some seaweed looking stuff starting to grow and its beginning to spread to other live rock at a fairly quick pace. I have attached a photo. Should i be worried about this getting out of hand and if so should i get a couple more crabs to sort it out?

Thanks!

The crab arent going to eat that stuff, and at that length, snails wont eat it either. I would suggest figuring out where the nitrates are coming from the fuel that algae growth and address that.
