Ok... I'm running a RBX setup with a dual 120mm copper heatercore. The resevoir is aluminum; however, it is anodized.
I've been running my system for a year and the piped began to get discolored ( a green buildup... I thought it was bacteria)
Last week I emptied out my system to find the water perfectly clear! (confusion) The piped remained green! I couldn't clean it out by flushing water through the system.
The copper waterblock was stained black, and the inside of the aluminum res was corroded. (annoyed)
I tried cleaning the waterblock but had a hard time getting the black off, and impossible in the channels.
Has anyone experienced this type of corrosion, and is there anything I can soak the system in to clean it out? Something abrasive.
Thanks in advance,
Rob McCarthy
