It makes me crazy too, Rachel. I think it's just brown algae sludge 
and a mixture of other grunge that seems to thrive in the tubing. I 
haven't found a way yet to eliminate it, but I think it's normal. If 
you prefer black over brown, just neglect cleaning the tubing for a 
long time and you'll see another color;) Sorry I couldn't offer any 
real help.

The cleaning brush that I have is a pain in the neck and doesn't work 
that well. I heard that there is one made for musical instruments 
that might be better and easier to use for this problem, but my local 
music store doesn't have one. That's the next thing I'm going to try.
