my tip: bacillus??????
But you should look at it with a microscope, and maybe take a photo of the structures you see, I think otherwise nobody here will be able to help you!

Could be a bacillus .. there's one strain called the Bacillus P--something something...that have such a morphology.

Mmm. it's rod, and can forms spore, maybe bacillus, can it be actinomycete?

Growth at 50C is the clue. Look among the actinomycetales
