Default How The Heck Did This Happen??

well i was just running some test with my ek supreme and found out that the plate inside does give better performance and so i opened my block to put the plate back in..and was faced with this horror.

ok so this is the plate

water block before

and After

Now the waterblock was only used for 4 days when this happened..so all that crapped accumilated over just 4 days..im not sure if its fungus or some skrewed up feser one acid green im using and why the hell it happened i dont know. Only thing i can think of is when i opened the wb to take the plate out 4 days ago, i cleaned the inside with normal tap water..could that have been it, or is that ive bled out and re-used te feser one fluid a few times, but i cant see that being the cause of this.

again, is that a nickle plate?

I heard somewhere that mixing copper with nickle will cause that stuff from the copper. It is a chemical reaction. Like when a penny turns green or a statue.

Methinks you inadvertently mixed metals, leading to a galvanic reaction, leaving deposits on the block.
