Hi All, I've been dealing with these numerous white wavy things on my glass (photo below), driftwood, and the bubble disk for the last two months, since I started the tank. I have tried wiping down the sides and done all of the requisite water changes, to no avail. At first I thought it was columnaris but I think all of my fish would be infected by now if that were the case? I don't think that I am overfeeding the tank. I'm mystified. Anyone have any ideas about what it is, how to get rid of it, and is it dangerous to the fish? Thanks so much!

Looks like biofilm. Just wipe the glass better when you do a water change
