Ok, someone please tell me what's going on... Yesterday I flushed out my cooling system and refilled it. I used distilled water and a little water wetter. I'm using Tygon tubing. Anyway, after I filled it I put one drop of my blue spectroline dyelite. It glowed a nice shade of blue right away, but I went and checked it today and it looked very dim compared to my UV IDE cables. I couldn't figure out what was going on. I put a second drop in and it made it glow a nice blue again. But I'm afraid to check it tomorrow and see it faded again. Also, I noticed that when I took off the cap to my Innovatek Tank-O-Matic plugon it seem like there was some condensation on the lid and it almost seemed to be pure dyelite. I know this because when not mixed with water it almost looks a green color, this is the color it looked on the lid. Is it possible that the dyelite is some how evaporating and then collecting on the top of my reservoir? I've never heard of anything like this before.
