That’s mucoid feces. Has the fish been eating o.k.?
Take a look in the file section here for an article I posted on fish mucus (I can’t link it, I’m on my phone).

the fish is in my tank since yesterday. came from a tank of a neighboor shut down his tank to upgrade. He was holding the fish for 2 years and they were eating evetything. fish was stessed cause he came in to my tank.. i was feeding flakes (spirulina) und pellets. fish was eating both, not very much but was picking it for sure.
