Rust? Bacterial buildup!

[Waterbug]

As i have read thru the forums and read all your comments on water additives i would like to give you my status on this so far, and would like comments of other with similar setups:

Swiftech Mcw462 UH CPU block, DD Heathercore, Clearflex60, Hydor L30 pump, Acryl 5,25 bay tank, The watercooling contains about 2 litres in total, Antec 1000amg window case.

Im using the litres measurement as i live in sweden.

I use battericarwater, 4 litres, brand (Hagmans), mixed with a bottle of D-tek supercool additive. A couple of weeks ago i spotted algee buildup in my plexiglass baytank i alsa have a plexiglass side on the pc case, so light would get in there pretty easy.

I added 12% of concentrated glykol antifreezer (Ethylene glykol), brand (Preem) and it made it worse, im now getting some white bacterial fungus groups in the tank, i did not have this before i added the glykol antifreezer.

I read somewhere that bleech would kill the bacteria, so i used what i had, Clorine 5% strong, and i put 5ml of the stuff in the 2L of water, in the tank, it reacted with the fungus and killed it. Now im worried about the corrosion stuff that i have read about when using clorine. So what would be the best brew/solution to use in a closed loop? I do no live in the US so we do not have lysol , pinosol, GM Antifreezer nor Hyperlube or Swiftech Hydrx. Only D-tek Supercool, Pupleice, WaterWetter and antifreezer non Ethylene / Ethylene stuff.

Any suggestions, from you people in Europe or other parts of the world?
And could anyone explain to me why the ethylene antifreezer made it worse???
I thought it was poisonious.

i have the answer for you!

Miltons!

its a anti-bacterial/anti-fungal disinfectant thing for baby's stuff, like bottles etc.

it doesnt go cloudy in water and doesnt harm plastics either. so its ideal

i dont know if you can get it in sweden, but i think you can (according to my mum) you should be able to buy it in most good chemist's like Boots. if not, find out if they have other stuff for sterilising baby utensiles and bottles.

You mix a little bit of this with some anti-corrosive?

The glycol antifreeze prevents nasties from forming, it could not make the fungus grow faster. It likely just stained all the bacteria and fungus in there making it more noticable.
