I've been playing around with 100% oat malt beers, and made a lager this time around. Before adding biofine yesterday, I noticed a clear band above the haze at the top of the fermentor. Anyone have an idea of what's happening there?

I would just assume its starting to floc by itself, certainly wouldn't worry about it with no other signs of an issue.
 
No idea what the cause is but I had a Belgian blonde recently do that. I just assumed it was yeast based. My beer is great so I wouldn't worry.
 
I've also seen it before, so I'm not worried - just curious :) It's interesting that the clear band matches the width of the trub/yeast layer on bottom.

Has it grown at all? Or did you already drop your bio-fine?
