Default Fuzzy Patch

So, I was looking at the tank this evening after lights out and I noticed a patch of white fuzz. The patch is about 5 inches around and is covered in tiny fiber like strings about a 1/10 inch long...Any ideas???

Could make a pretty good guess but would be invalid without pics... plus I'd probably be kicked off here for sexually explicit post!!

I have no clue but know everyone on here will want a pic for ID purposes.
