White stringy stuff on PVC pipe and scrubber. Tank only 2 weeks old. It’s near the Wavemaker if that’s relevant.

Looks like a thread from the filter? And maybe some pineapple sponges in there too?

Welcome to R2R!

Odd for a newer tank, it almost looks like junk that builds up when I scrape my glass and gets caught. I don't think that is the case here... but welcome!
 
I have a HOB overflow with a protein slimmer in my sump and a return pump if that helps at all.

Possibly the glue inside the PVC pipe breaking down? Idk because the glue is blue and this is white so doubtful I guess.
 
Looks like fiber of some sort
