Does anyone know what this is? It's also on my amazon sword, but the lighting isn't good enough for a picture of it.

Either your filter isn't very well cycled, you have poor flow to the area or a major ammonia spike, purigen in your filter gets rid of this amazingly well.

I've already gotten the answer on my accidental double post, but thanks for the help! The plant isn't actually aquatic.
