I need some help. I have done very little with sour beer, only beginning this year. Here is a photo of a one gallon batch of Berliner Weisse, first fermented on Gigayeast Quick Souring Lactobacillus & Wyeast 1007. After primary, racked on to tart cherries and added WLP 655. Has been in secondary for at least 2 months.

Are those white spots mold? Dump it?

I'm not an expert but that's how mine looked as well. I never got the bubbly pellicle but instead got the ice Berg looking things
 
Had the same thing on mine as well, eventually covered the whole top of the liquid, but never really got any thicker than that
