Anyone know what this brown stuff is on my little candy cane frag?

Is the brown jelly on the tissue, or being discharged from the mouth?
 
Hard to say, by the looks of it it looks like its on the tissue. Kind if brown fuzzy looking stuff
 
It sounds like a protozoal infection, perhaps due to earlier damage to tissues. Treatment is required, perhaps a iodine dip with gentle 'swishing' to removal dead tissue and protozoans. Increased water motion when back in the aquarium might aid in healing.
 
Ok, thanks for the input
