You don't have any fish that make bubble nests, maybe they are just bubbles?
 
Have you tested your water parameters?
Sometime bubbles collecting at the surface can be a sign of poor water quality.
If you agitate the water surface with your finger to create bubbles they should pop almost instantly with good water quality.
Do you have a Venturi or airstone?
Could be the filter flow pushing bubbles to a certain spot and collecting there.
 
Have you changed to a different water conditioner? One I tried tended to result in longer lasting bubbles on the surface for some reason. I think it had some sort of mucus additive for fish health.
 
il do a water tes later. they do feel kinda slimy though like when you touch it is doesnt pop. its kinda like a spit ball :sick:
