Looks bacterial. Could be from your TDS being up there fueled by the contaminates getting in your water.

O TDS water and some water changes over time it should clear up.
 
it is hard to scrub some of it off could it be something else
 
Battling the same thing right now. So far I've been going in with a toothbrush before a water change and scrubbing as much of it off as I can. Its definitely helping, some progress is being made.
 
Blow iff with turkey baster and siphon. Looks bacterial .
Try reducing white lighting and add liquid bacteria such as bacter 7 during day and 1ml of peroxide at night to see if it retracts. ChemiClean may also work on this substance
 
looks like white slime to me. where are your parameters?
 
I'm going to to test tomo I had a busy day today
