I'm really not sure what you are asking.....I've never known a rock to grow sweeper tenicals.
Are you talking about an LPS coral's sweepers, and if so, what is the problem with them?
From what you posted I think you are talking about the feeding tenicals of a type of worm that I can't think of the name of right now....I'll see if I can find it on a bookmark when I get home from work. However if these are what you are talking about they are harmless to your corals.

It definately worms. Not to worry about. Never seen them damage anything. They live in holes in live rock and extend them out of hole.
