liquid culture red myc?

So..I'm not really sure what I'm looking at, but my logic tells me its no good.
I did an lc with corn syrup...and did 5 diff species in 5 diff jars. On day 6 in the incubator, I checked the jars to find a 'red fuzz' floating in all my jars...and was hoping for myc.
What am I looking at really?
I've checked around and it seems like these are metabolites...or no?
Help guys...please lol 
And as always...please direct and close if this has been obviously and clearly answered in another post. Defrostu

how did you sterilize your jars? where did you get your spore syringes from? or did you make them? if you did make your own syringes, what steps did you use?

Thank you everyone for the quick replies! It seems like the red lipstick mold is confirmed but I am posting 2 pictures to get the "yup, thats the red" for you guys.
I flame tipped, alch whiped, everything. Small bathroom, entire can of lysol....even surgen mask. lol. did the cyber tek for lc using corn syrup.
I'm going to go with the baby bottle method...seems im more of a noob than I thought...a few flushes or not
