My peace Lilly was doing great, it was blooming and all of a sudden started doing bad. I checked the roots and found this. What is it and what do I do!

it’s fungi, you can scrape it off and spray with hydrogen peroxide to kill it but i’m pretty sure mold is harmless to the roots, it just may have been getting over watered, since fungi only tend to grow in very moist environments
