What I've been able to find indicates that it is a fungus, most likely due to overfeeding but can also occur on young driftwood. If it turns green/brown then most likely algae.

Take a look st that page, maybe that's what it is. Also read that fish like molly's will eat it and it naturally goes away. Hope that helps
