Sounds and looks like some type of fungus....I think a 30-50% water change is in order...What size tank?? any other fish?? water parameters?? How often do you do water changes??

 

[paesa]

4000 lt system 25% water change daily doing majior water change now

There are some good anti-funguls out there but perhaps you should talk to someone who has used them before you use it.....There may be a preferred brand given your tank size and species you keep......GL Hope you don't lose another lovely
