Default Squiggly wormlike growth on glass/corners of tank

Hey all,
Sorry I didn't provide a pic here, I'm hoping this will be an easy one. Looking at my buddies tank, we noticed a white wormlike thing growing on the glass and in the opposite corner of the tank. It's all white, squiggly(???) and connects so there is no visible end. Boy I hope this makes sense!

Thanks!!

Is it like a long system of threads white/translucent in colour and about the same thickness as a human hair? If so i had some of these and they were i think some kind of Hydroid.
