Chaeto killing my cycle?

Iv'e just started cycling my 12 G nano 5 days ago. I purchased 15 lbs. of great live rock, and put 20 lbs. of live sand in. I bought the live sand on-line, and it came with free Chaeto (sp) refugium and two snails. One of the snails never moved for four days and stank. The other has spent the last 5 days at the top, half in and half out of the tank. The refugium just drifts and has turned white/green. Now white spiderweb looking stuff is growing all over my rock. Do I take out the Chaeto or dose this cycle through? Desperate, thanks in advance, Jeff. :scared:
