I am new to the whole planted tank thing amd about a week after I got my plants I started noticing these cotton ball looking things floating everywhere and on stuff. Can anyone tell me what it is and if its bad or not.
 
Do you have a picture? That maybe the only way we can help you :)

Do you have any driftwood in the tank? Is it cycled?

No they don't have driftwood in yet...but very soon I think
 
might be fungus growing on extra food left in the tank. check to see if there is anything inside the cotton ball. Also, just siphon them out.
 
I can't get a clear picture but it does look a little darker in the center of it. I just need to siphon them out?

It doesn't seem to be affecting either the fish or plants so that's good news.
