1) dont be a smartass
2) antifreeze may contain antibacterial agents, but this is solely a biproduct of it's chemicals, it is not on purpose. his problem was said as having a fungi type growth. his solution had antifreeze in it. my point is that WATER ALONE w/O help from any antibacterial agents in antifreeze would not cause a growth when mixing metals, therefore mixing metals was not his problem, light was. i purposefully left out corrosion, as i was not attacking that issue, only growth. i otherwise agree about the anticorrosives.

3) water wetter contains a lubricant that additionally helps wear and tear on water pumps, most likely the leftover film on the tubing had to do with this lubricant
