Currently Used:

95% distilled water
5% water wetter
and 1/2 teaspoon Algae destroyer
Darn, and in a week I was going to re-do it all anyway with a new radiator. Oh well, I guess a little extra work won't kill me. With temps between 98-103 F I'm still happy.

The brown might be related to the water wetter. It's been known to cake your tubing with a chalky film. In my case it was a little more red than brown however.
I've given up completely on water wetter and am running glycol/water. Who knows how much performance I've lost however.
