Kinda hard to tell from the picture but it does look like cyano to me. Is it red? If so get some chemiclean and it will clear it up.

It’s more of a brown slight bit of red slimy with some bubbles under it. Thanks for the reply

Yeah I would say its cyano with those bubbles. When I dose chemiclean I do as per the instructions. They say to do 20% water change after 48 hours I believe, but if cyano is not cleared up I will dose again and the do the water change 48 hours after that. Works everytime.
