I have stuff floating on the top of my secondary,kind of looks like mold. I did all the necessary sanitizing,do you think it's mold or maybe something else? If so is it garbage now?
 
Is it a white film? If so it probably dead yeast left over from the primary. If it starts turning green or other colors then you will have to worry.
 
Skin-like film or small bubbles? How much headspace in your container? A pic would help.

Even if it's an infection and it hasn't been too long, you can save it.
 
don't know if you can tell from this picture

Looks like clusters of bubbles which would be normal. A clearer pic would be able to confirm.
 
This is the best I can do.. I think you guys are right,I shined a flashlight on the side and i see a lot more floating up.. Thanks for the input guys
