This may be bad news.
Yeast, when fermenting, simply makes the mead cloudy (plus producing
CO2).
If you see ropey, mucus like stuff this may very well be a bacterial
infection.
Leave it alone for several days and then pull the the cork/airlock
and smell it. If it as a slightly acidic yeasty smell all is well. If
it has a foul smell then it most likely has a bacterial infection.
