Looks a bit rotten.
With your water temps, youre probably going to need to run a beneficial or a sterilizer.

Which ph perfect nutrient are u using I was thinking about getting me some here in a week or 2

All the AN nutes pretty much are pH Perfect. I'm using the basic 3 - part ones now after trying Sensi and Connie but used the older AN nutes for 12 years before they came out with the pH Perfect stuff. Just don't try adjusting the pH of your water after adding the nutes or you screw them up. For some reason pH pens don't seem to read it right anyway. I use RO or distilled water only and never check the pH whether growing in soil/soilless or hydro and never have pH issues. Just the base nutes with a little CalMag, (REMO at the moment). Big Bud for flowering and a dash of Rhino Skin for silica. That's all I use.

I'd get some peroxide in there for sure. @fragileassassin is right about it looking rotten.

Get some 35% food grade peroxide and add 3 - 4 ml/L to kill the rot. Mix some at that rate and pour thru the net pots too as it's in there as well.

I always used 0.5ml/L twice weekly so rot never started then made a chiller from an old water cooler and then didn't need peroxide.

peroxide is fine and itll work as Oldmed described.
If youd prefer to run on the beneficial side once youve cleared it up, the southern ag fungicide is a pretty cost effective preventative. You can treat each bucket with a few drops after a water change.
I have cleared rot up with it alone.

SG Garden Friendly Fungicide made all the difference for me. I add a 5mL syringe full ever time I top off, plus using a water chiller and my roots are Crazy healthy! I’ve used peroxide as well, but it was less effective and more expensive
