Well the brown water seems to have subsided. I'm knocking on wood at this point. It seemed, running the CO2 diffuser underneath my Eheim intake caused brown water. The canister filter is 6mo old, so maybe the concentrated acid caused a leak of silicon into the water? Maybe, the current levels of diatom algae are a result of the silicon tubes? Thoughts?
