Sewer Pipe Question

When flushing my toilet, I glanced down the pipe and saw some kind of off white gel like substance growing on the pipe. I took a stick and then a brush and scraped it off.
Now about a month later, same thing. Any ideas what it may be or what is causing it?
  • The next time add some bleach to your brush before doing the scraping. That should get rid of the slime for good.
  • If you really want to know you will need to pull it up instead of push it down.
  • My guess is toilet paper that is growing some sort of fungus. Just a guess. But are you using RV TP or regular household TP? And any tank treatment?
  • If you are asking about the toilet bowl, yes, I fill it about half full before using. If you are asking about the tank, I put about 10 gallons in before using.
  • toilet paper.It needs to be in the water to desolve.
