Could it be the start of rizome rot and if so should I trim it or leave it?

Everything looks very good to my eye. I've kept and propagated Anubias and Bolbitis for 25 years, and have never seen rizome rot. I don't see it there - the plants look great.
 
It looks like biofilm and should not be a problem.

You can blow it off with a turkey baster, to be able to see if it is indeed "attacking" the plant.

But I wouldn't think so.
