It is now 3 months later.
My water pan method did not seem to work, the cheese started to get too dry.

I moved them to a ziplock bag that I left 50% open.
The cheese is also been stored rather cool 45-50F

The mold is black and white.

Am I still ok?
I can post pictures if it will help?

Should I scrape and mold?  Wipe with salt? Poke holes??
