Liquid coolent turned dark

[Mattriot]

Hi I recently installed watercooling in my rig. I put Mayhem pastel red cooling in it. in 2 weeks it went from bright red (almost fushia) to a dark purple almost brown. What is the problem?

Are all your blocks fittings and radiators the same metal? Some metals react with each other and can cause discoloring in your fluids. It could be from corrosion as well. check out some other posts about similar problems.
