I can’t really tell from the photo, does it appear to be more of a honey growth or a blister like growth?

Hi @Madisonkeug it might seem blister like, almost shaped like a droplet, and im not sure if it did grow slightly bigger overnight. it is like pale white-greyish and looks firm. cory still swimming actively around in tank.

It's not a common disease so most likely a blister or similar.
Make sure the water is clean and monitor it over the next few days.

Hello
How long did it take "that" to appear ?
Do a 50% water change (same temp as tank).

It might be the beginning of lymphocystis or maybe Hexamitiatis (hole in the head).
