Is this a fungal growth in my hot pepper ferment?

I see this filmy string swimming in my 2 week old ferment. Chillies, 3.5% salt brine, feijoa pulp, coriander leaves/stems, and garlic are it's components.

Will this need to be discarded? I will do so with a heavy heart if need be.

Shamefully I must admit I opened the ferment briefly to gaze at its surface, which demonstrated no powdery white filth indicative of obvious corruption.
